Athletistic / Figure skating. The most successful figure skaters in the history of Lithuania, Margarita Drobiazko and Povilas Vanagas, will not be able to attend the 2024 European Championships, which will take place in Kaunas (Lithuania). This was announced by the President of the Lithuanian Skating Union, Vytautas Jasutis.

Previously, Vanagas and Drobyazko had problems in Lithuania. Athletes were deprived of state awards due to their participation in Tatiana Navka’s ice show in Sochi. Subsequently, the Lithuanian president signed a decree depriving Drobyazko of his citizenship. She is originally from Moscow, but after the collapse of the USSR she played for Lithuania.

Zhurova reacted to the deprivation of Lithuanian citizenship of figure skater Drobyazko

“No one can deny the contribution to history of our best couple of all time. It’s a shame that they can’t attend the European Championship at home. I’m not a judge, let alone a judge moral. But the federation has clearly expressed its position – there can be no ambiguity regarding Ukraine”, – quotes Jasutis from Respublika.lt
