Down-the-line.com / Athletics. Former Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) President Leonid Tyagachev commented on the remarks by Dagestan leader Sergei Melikov. Earlier he said that the stadium named after Elena Isinbayeva in Makhachkala will be renamed.

Melikov’s displeasure was caused by the former athlete’s latest comments. Isinbayeva announced that she would continue to work with the International Olympic Committee (IOC). She also said that her rank of major in the Russian army was only nominal. Media reported that Isinbayeva is currently living in Spain.

“The question of renaming the stadium in honor of Yelena Isinbayeva does not belong to the leader of Dagestan. We must first think and carry out a whole investigation to find out who said and did what.”

You can’t throw around the words she said. Isinbayeva has shown by her actions that she is the best in the world. Therefore, we have to wait,” RIA Novosti quotes Tyagachev.
