The Russian women's team led the overall medal count (6) and gold medals (3). The Russian team won the team all-around, while Angelina Melnikova won gold in the individual all-around and vault. Melnikova also took two bronze medals — on balance beam and floor exercise, while Anna Kalmykova finished second in the individual all-around. The women's European Championships were held from August 13 to 16, while the men's championships will be held from August 19 to 23. These tournaments are qualifiers for the 2026 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships. Earlier, the Croatian Embassy in Moscow denied visas to nine members of the Russian artistic gymnastics delegation, including women's team leaders Melnikova, Viktoria Listunova, and Kalmykova. On Monday, the Russian diplomatic mission in Zagreb told Sputnik that visas had been granted to Melnikova, Kalmykova, Leyla Vasilyeva, and Alexey Usachev. However, the initial visa denial remained in effect for Listunova, Sergey Naydin, Evgeny Kisel, coach Yuliy Kuksenkov, and physician Sergey Gulevskiy.
