Labartian surpassed his fellow candidate Emmanuelle Ponnier-Ouldaghi in a secret ballot conducted by the board members, receiving 36 out of 45 votes. The 50-year-old Labartian will take over the responsibilities from Brigitte Enriquez, who resigned last month, approximately a year before the Summer Games in Paris 2024.
