Coventry's election as IOC president sends message of unity, says FEI chief

Lausanne, Switzerland, Apr 2 (UNI) International Equestrian Federation (FEI) President Ingmar De Vos hailed Kirsty Coventry's election as the new International Olympic Committee (IOC) president as a "clear message to the world" during a press conference Tuesday following the two-day FEI Forum.
"Congratulations to Kirsty Coventry for winning the election in the first round, which I believe sends a very clear message to the outside that there is a kind of consensus in the IOC," De Vos said. Coventry, a Zimbabwean Olympian, became the IOC's first female and African president after her election at the 144th IOC Session in Greece on March 20.
De Vos noted he held extensive discussions with Coventry ahead of the vote. "We talked about the priorities that we see for the new president. She basically agreed that the focus should come back to the sport... The core business of the IOC is to organize the Olympic Games. And we believe that folks should go with more in that direction."
