President of the All-Russian Swimming Federation (VFPU) Vladimir Salnikov told that there were no obstacles to the return of Olympic medalists Yulia Efimova And Vladimir Morozov to competitive practice and potentially participation in the Russian Championships, but they must show a qualifying result.
Efimova previously told that she will miss the Russian championship, which will be held in April in Kazan.
– There are no obstacles to performance at Russian competitions for Efimova and Morozov. They must show a qualifying result, enter the top 50 in the country and apply from their region. The application is generated by the region. In the case of Efimova, it is the Moscow region, Moscow must apply for Morozov. That’s actually all. Nobody announced them and, as I understand it, they will not happen.
– That is to say, if these criteria are met by the next departure, can they resume competitive practice? For example, for the Russian Short Course Championship?
– Yes. Why not?
– What if this qualifying result is displayed not in Russia, but abroad?
‘But he must be of the level I have already mentioned. And, again, there has to be an application of the subject,” Salnikov told .
