The Russian athletics federation announced its full team for the European Athletics Championships on Saturday.
Another 68 athletes will travel to the Spanish hosts Barcelona, where the Championships will be staged between 26 July and 1 August, after being added to the 38 names that were announced on Monday.

The only minor element of controversy surrounded the omission of current European and Olympic high jump champion Andrey Silnov, the current joint world leader with 2.33m, but who could only finish fourth at this week’s national championships.
