Athletistic/Figure Skating. Russian figure skater and Olympic champion Adelina Sotnikova has commented on the doping scandal that has erupted around her. Earlier, the Republic of Korea Olympic and Sports Committee (KSOC) announced its intention to ask the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to investigate Sotnikova’s statement about a positive doping test in 2014.

In her social media post, Sotnikova said she had received numerous calls and messages from media and fans seeking her comments on the situation. She noted that the media had twisted her remarks, attributing her acknowledgment of illegal drug use. The figure skater stressed that neither in 2014 nor now does the international doping control system ask her questions. She also stressed that nothing could take away the essentials – her performance at the Sochi Olympics, moments on the podium, performing the Russian anthem and feeling that she adequately represented her country.
