Earlier, the athlete said that all his military ranks, awarded to him during his performances for CSKA, are nominal. Elena Isinbayeva also received the Order of Honor, the Order of Merit to the Fatherland and the Medal of the Order of Merit to the Fatherland.
Fedorov expressed his views on this situation: “In our state, the ideology of patriotism is prohibited, and athletes and other communities initially do not promote patriotism. A person can become patriotic in the family, but then, for career or financial interests, he can claim to be patriotic. This was actually observed in the case of Isinbayeva. She pretended to be patriotic for a long time and tried to create ties with Pou tine (in 2017 she joined the Poutine Team movement).
The deputy believes that all awards are given on the basis of patriotism, but Isinbayeva, in his opinion, is an anti-patriot and therefore does not deserve these awards. Fedorov recalled a similar case in history, when Vlasov was deprived of all the highest honors of the USSR after switching to the enemy side.
