Previously, the athlete was expelled from the Ukrainian national team, for which she has been playing since 2019. Before that, the skater represented Russia.
Former coach Sotnikova reacted to the recognition of the athlete about a positive doping test
“Millions of people wonder where I disappeared… Indeed, I left the world of figure skating immediately after the Olympics for a year. I didn’t train for a long time, and it was only my desire. I want to make a little statement, someone will be happy for me, someone is upset. One of these days I will go out on the ice and train fully. I have gained strength and patience to continue the fight. See you in 2024,” Shabotova wrote on social media.
