Athletistic/ Figure Skating. On Saturday February 18, the office of the Russian Figure Skating Federation reacted to the latest statements by Evgeni Plushenko. Immediately after the performances in Perm, where the country’s junior championship was held, the two-time Olympic champion gave a series of resounding interviews devoted to domestic refereeing.
According to Plushenko, his students systematically suffer from biased refereeing, which has an extremely negative effect on their desire to pursue competitive activities in Russia.
Moreover, the coach said that several of his students had warned that one day they might decide to change their sports citizenship due to problems with the work of justice in Russia.
Today, the current FFKKR chief Alexander Kogan categorically rejected all the claims of the Angels owner.
“I don’t agree with Evgeny that there is some kind of prejudice towards his students from the referees,” Kogan said succinctly, as quoted by Sport24.
