The IABA has also demanded the full restoration of the UBF's membership.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has raised concern over the UBF's suspension and now the IABA has rebuked IBA for not allowing members to discuss the matter in greater detail. Prodyvus is recognised as FBU President by IBA, but Ukraine's Ministry of Justice contradicts this assertion, with Kyrylo Shevchenko listed by it as the person who has the right to execute the UBF's legal acts. The UBF was suspended on September 23 - two days before the IBA Extraordinary Congress - with IBA citing "Government interference" and appointing its vice-president Volodymyr Prodyvus as coordinator for Ukraine's athletes. National Federations were not given the chance to consider the UBF's suspension at last weekend's IBA Extraordinary Congress, while almost two-thirds of voting delegates voted against staging a Presidential election. The Irish Athletic Boxing Association (IABA) has condemned the "illegal suspension" of the Ukrainian Boxing Federation (UBF) by the International Boxing Association (IBA) and called for fresh Presidential elections as the world governing body "appears to be choosing a path away from Olympic boxing".
