Moscow (Voice Of Russia): A prestigious ceremony was held at the Catherine Hall of the Kremlin where Russian boxing world champions and representatives of the Russian Boxing Federation were honored with state awards.<\/p>\n

Addressing the ceremony, President Vladimir Putin said that the outstanding performances of Russian athletes reaffirm the country\u2019s strong and stable position in global sports. He highlighted that both the men\u2019s and women\u2019s teams secured first place at the 2025 World Championships, marking a significant achievement.<\/p>\n

Putin also noted that Russia is gradually returning to the global sports arena with dignity, citing notable successes in various disciplines, including the Paralympics.<\/p>\n
