Honored Coach of the USSR in Figure Skating Tatiana Tarasova believes that the International Skating Union treats the Russian figure skater unfairly Camila Valieva .
Earlier on Friday, it became known that 15-year-old Valieva for the 2022/23 season had been transferred from the extended test group, which she was in the previous season, to the registered group.
– The main thing is not to be left out of the competition, of course. But it’s not fair to her. I see no fairness in the actions of the ISU towards us lately. They spare neither the children, nor their health, nor us, since this control is tightening for her. It will be necessary to allocate an hour for them – it is. Coaching. Let them come after her or as ordered by (Eteri) Tutberidze. If they want to discourage his desire to ride, they won’t push them away, they have a lot of honor,” Tarasova told RBC Sport.
Valieva won gold at the 2022 Olympics as part of the Russian national team after the team figure skating tournament. The IOC has decided not to award the winners of the competition until the investigation related to the athlete’s December positive doping test has been completed. In the individual tournament, the skater became fourth, losing the lead after the short program.
