President of the Sports and Educational Center “Sambo-70” Renat Laishev told that no one has the right to condemn the figure skating coach Eteri Tutberidze for a trip to the United States to visit his daughter.
Earlier on Monday, Tutberidze posted a happy new year message and attached a photo with daughter Diana Davis and ice dancing partner Gleb Smolkin to a social media post.
– No one should criticize Tutberidze. A trip to the USA is her business, she lives her life, resists what is happening around her. Every creative person has a motivation and they are not responsible for what they do,” Laishev told , commenting on Tutberidze’s journey.
– What to do with the pair Davis / Smolkin: wait for them in Russia during tournaments or is it time to start playing for the national team of another country?
– In any case, it is necessary to wish good luck to Diana and Gleb, not to involve them at different times. They are good, nice guys, and politicians should fix everything so that athletes don’t suffer. It seems to me that everyone began to understand that it was necessary to improve relations, to look for a loophole for the return of Russian sport to the world.
