Olympic diving champion Yelena Vaytsekhovskaya believes that Russian figure skaters can be admitted to the European and World Championships, as progress in this direction in other sports has already begun.
– “Idle” is a very arbitrary concept: Russian skaters expect a large series of well-paid performances, and the competition at these starts will in no way be comparable to what happens at the individual stages of the Grand Prix. One of the drawbacks is the possible skipping of the European and World Championships, but I do not completely rule out that athletes may be admitted to the main starts: progress in this direction has already started in a number of sports, quotes RT Vaitsekhovskaya.
Earlier, the International Skating Union (ISU) Congress extended the suspension of Russian athletes from international competitions until further notice and rejected the proposal of the Russian Figure Skating Federation (FFKKR) to tighten the rules of change of sport citizenship of skaters.
