You couldn't make this up:
Russia among four candidates to host Euro 2028 and 2032
Russia is among the candidates to host the European Championship in either 2028 or 2032 despite being banned from international sport following the invasion of Ukraine, the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) announced after Wednesday’s deadline to declare an interest passed.
Russia and Turkey will go up against a joint bid by the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland for Euro 2028.
Russia and Turkey also declared their interest in hosting the 2032 edition, along with Italy.
UEFA will announce the host nations for both tournaments in September 2023.
Tbf by 2028 the world will probably have forgotten about Ukraine and will be focussed on the latest war. Probably involving China or North Korea. Not that most people will be able to afford to watch it on tv anyway of electric prices go up further.
