Olympic medalist in track cycling Anastasia Voinova said she would support Russian cyclists competing in the Nations Cup in Hong Kong.
Four Russians were authorized to participate in these departures (March 15 to 17) with neutral status. Voinova previously announced that it had decided not to benefit from neutral status.
“I will support them, they are my teammates, my friends.” This is my position, but it is a personal matter for everyone.
— You had no desire to change your sporting citizenship, with your badges? There would surely be a federation that would support you.
— There was such a thought, but I had emotional exhaustion, the main thing was the birth of a child. I simply would not have the strength to continue the fight to change my sporting citizenship,” Voinova told .
