FIFA and UEFA have suspended all Russian international and club teams from their competitions "until further notice," the governing bodies announced in a joint statement on Monday.
World football's governing body, FIFA, and European football's governing body, UEFA, said that both organizations' presidents -- Gianni Infantino and Aleksander Čeferin -- "hope that the situation in Ukraine will improve significantly and rapidly so that football can again be a vector for unity and peace amongst people."
UEFA's club competitions include the men's and women's Champions League, the men's Europa League and the men's UEFA Conference League.
