Athletistic/ Figure Skating. Today, February 5, the ISU Skating Awards took place in Zurich. Russia’s Anna Shcherbakova has been nominated for the Most Valuable Skater award. However, the award was received by American Nathan Chen. This was stated by Deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation Svetlana Zhurova.

– It was clear that they would not allow a Russian athlete to receive the award. For this reason, she was not invited to the ceremony. Then they would be pressured from all sides and wonder how it could have happened that a Russian athlete got on the podium and received an award, so the ISU did everything to prevent this, quotes TASS Zhurova.
