No Russian participants at annual Battle of Austerlitz re-enactment▼

<p>The Battle of the Three Emperors has returned to Austerlitz near the town of Slavkov u Brna in the Czech Republic after a two-year hiatus forced by the COVID-19 pandemic.</p> <p>Hundreds of history buffs from 14 countries dressed in brightly coloured military uniforms came to re-enact the battle that took place 217 years ago on December 2, 1805.</p> <p>However, following a raft of European sanctions on Russia for its ongoing invasion of Ukraine, Prague joined Poland, Finland and the Baltic states and stopped issuing Russian citizens tourist visas in October.</p> <p>As a consequence, there were no Russian participants at this year's event.</p> <p>“The Russian army is present here as always but only fans from the Czech Republic, Austria and Poland are wearing the Russian historical uniforms, so no change at all,” said the organiser of the project, Miroslav Jandora.</p> <div data-stories-id="4343514,3021967" data-event="widget_related" class="widget widget--type-related widget--size-fullwidth widget--align-center"> <div class="widget__wrapper"> <div class="widget__ratio widget__ratio--auto"> <div class="widget__contents"> Source
