Athletistic/ Figure Skating. Deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation Irina Rodnina shared her opinion on Russia’s participation in the ISU Congress.

“Thank God we were allowed to participate in the elections and in the congress. However, participation in the congress is an opportunity to propose something, to vote. We don’t have anyone on the technical committee now. Of course, you can come and sit quietly in the corner. But given Russia’s leading position in figure skating, that would be a mistake. Therefore, we were allowed. But I don’t think that after that we will be allowed to compete,” Rodnina said.

Earlier it became known that Russia will take part in the congress of the International Figure Skating Federation, despite protests in Ukraine.
