Athletistic/Others. In an interview with SE, Nikita Nagorny, Olympic champion and president of the All-Russian Federation of Physical Sports, emphasized that the time of exclusion of Russian athletes from international competitions should be used wisely.

“We have already adapted. Every person is capable of adapting to the current situation. We have the Future Games, the Friendship Games and the BRICS Games coming up. Currently, the country’s sports community and officials are united like never before. We clearly see where and in what sporting problems arose. The main thing is to regain strength and resolve these difficulties. For example, China also went through a period without the Olympics. However, after that, they gathered together, came back and started winning. Difficult times make us stronger,” Nagorny noted in an interview with SE.
