The Board of the Children of Asia International Committee considered an election of a new vice-president of the Children of Asia International Committee.
Mr. Rodion Plitukhin was submitted by the Russian Olympic Committee as a candidate and was unanimously approved by the members of the Board of the Committee. Mr. Marat Bariev, who previously held this post, was elected an honorary member of the Children of Asia International Committee.
“The nomination of Mr. Rodion Plitukhin by the Russian Olympic Committee, one of the founders of the Committee, indicates that great hopes are placed on the Children of Asia International Committee and on the Committee's projects. It is also strengthening the presence of the founder in the work of the organization and we deeply appreciate it. We hope that the work will continue in the same unified impulse as in all previous years. In turn, we would like to thank Marat Mansurovich for the work he has been doing since the establishment of the Committee to the present day. I am sure that in the future Marat Mansurovich, as an honorary member of the Committee, will continue to contribute to development of children's sports and projects of the Children of Asia International Committee," said Mr. Vladimir Maksimov, President of the Children of Asia International Committee.
