Original Note:
Sec. t.122 of FIE tech. rules states a fencer’s salute + handshake are required. Thus refusal to shake hands warrants expulsion but it can be argued the correct order (salute -> handshake) must be upheld. This should disqualify the Russian athlete who refused to first salute. https://static.fie.org/uploads/29/149099-technical%20rules%20ang.pdf
