Athletistic/Figure skating. Three-time Olympic champion Irina Rodnina expressed her opinion on the statement of the acting president of the Russian Figure Skating Federation (FFKKR) Anton Sikharulidze regarding the planned tightening of the federation’s position on the change of sports citizenship of figure skaters .

“We already have certain rules. There is a certain period during which you can move from one club to another. This, of course, does not apply to changing coaches, but there are certain restrictions in representation of the organization. There are also rules governing the transition to other national federations “According to them, you cannot compete for another country in international competitions for two years. Within the framework of my competence as the head of the federation of the Moscow region, two juniors have already received permission to move to another country without the permission of our regional federation and without the consent of the FFKKR. We need to more strictly monitor compliance with all the rules established by the federation charter,” Rodnina emphasized in an interview with a Sport-Express journalist.
