Agustin Pichot has resigned from his role on the World Rugby Council after his defeat by Sir Bill Beaumont in the election for World Rugby chairman.
He has resigned as Americas Rugby president and the Argentine Rugby Union representative on the council.
Pichot says the only reason he has been a part of World Rugby to this day, and which in turn is the same one that has moved him to run for chairman, is the conviction that World Rugby needs change.
He says but his proposal, which he fervently believes in, has not been chosen, and that is why he chose to step aside.
He adds he cannot conceive of occupying a place just for the sake of occupying it.
