All members of the IFIA Committee approved the candidates for voting at the General Assembly, except for the Swedish and China candidates, who were to be nominated by the IFIA member from Sweden and China. Due to the excessive absence of Chinese and Swedish candidates in the executive committee meetings from 2018 to 2020, it was decided that the two IFIA member countries will nominate a new candidate.
