Honored Coach Tatiana Tarasova admitted that it was difficult for him to hear the statement of the deputy of the State Duma Roman Teryushkova which proposed to equate the change of sports citizenship with high treason.
– I do not want to think that the State Duma consists of such people. It’s even hard for me to hear that there are monsters like this Teryushkov. The name only brings disgrace. We are used to the fact that Valentina Tereshkova is a symbol of the country, and he disgraces her, Tarasova told .
According to the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, Article 275 “High treason” provides for imprisonment from 12 to 20 years with a fine of up to 500,000 rubles.
