This month Tatarstan Minister of Sport Vladimir Leonov said that his ministry continued talks with World Aquatics to hold the World Championships in 2025. There was no information about the postponement at that moment.

Realnoe Vremya has sent a request to the Tatarstan Ministry of Sport.

It should be reminded that Kazan also lost the right to host the UEFA Superrcup in 2023. It will be held in Athens.
