The Russian Ministry of Sport suspended the Russian Athletics Federation (RusAF) for one month on 31 January due ARAF officials obstructing in international anti-doping investigations into Danil Lysenko. As a result, RusAF did not organise the national championships and the Ministry of Sport managed this directly.[1] Due to ongoing international sanctions for doping against the Russian governing body, the competition did not serve as a selection meet for the 2020 World Athletics Indoor Championships.[2]
In addition to the main track and field championship, national championships for combined track and field events were held from 16–18 February in Kirov.[3]
