“Yaroslava, hello! I congratulate you and Tatyana Stepanova on your World Cup medal! You are incredible and I admire your courage.
I am very sorry that the relations between our countries influenced your attitude towards me. I didn’t allow myself that after Tokyo and I won’t allow myself that now. Every day I think that everything is fine with you and your loved ones, and for some reason I thought you understood this (knowing me and my coach for so many years). But of course, it’s not obligatory, since I’ve never said it out loud.
Maria Lasitskene wrote a letter of support to Ukrainian Maguchikh after the 2022 World Cup
Forgive me for my weakness, I couldn’t find the words, I was afraid that my “how are you?” will make you even angrier. Since the answer to this question is clear. And I was sure that nothing I said would ease your experiences and your suffering. I can’t do anything about this ###### (situation) and it breaks my heart.
I’m not justifying myself in any way, I just want you to at least try to understand me.
I made a mistake, but at that moment I thought my words wouldn’t help you in any way.
But silence does not equal consent.
I don’t think you will understand me… I reread all this and understand that words do not make anything easier,” says the letter, the text of which is quoted by Sports.ru.
