The announcement on their website, which was a part of the IPC&#8217;s original press release,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.abc.net.au\/news\/2016-08-30\/russia-now-banned-from-2018-paralympic-winter-games\/7796888\" target=\"_blank\">reads as follows<\/a>,<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">The decision taken by the IPC, upheld by the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) regarding Russian paralympians being excluded from the 2016 Paralympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, has also been extended to include the Winter Games in 2018 in Pyeongchang.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Reports from the International Paralympic Committee (IPC), however, dismiss those claims.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the IPC&#8217;s denial many media outlets, including\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.insidethegames.biz\/articles\/1041118\/ipc-dismiss-claims-russia-also-banned-from-pyeongchang-2018-paralympics\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Inside The Games<\/em><\/a>, have reported on the extension of the ban.
