Athletistic / Figure skating. Popular sports journalist Dmitry Guberniev once again shared his opinion on the disqualification of Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva.
“We also do not master convincing arguments. Just look at Valieva’s case – this is the section “Stand or fall”. I am convinced that Kamila is an honest and pure girl, but the rules were broken. It was necessary to fix things. “The protection system is completely different. But here we often do everything randomly, or simply spit on people: this is a Russian tradition that goes back to the times of the tsars,” Guberniev quotes Guberniev in Amurskaya Pravda.
On January 29, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne (Switzerland) decided to find Kamila Valieva guilty of violating anti-doping rules and disqualified the Russian for 4 years. The period of his suspension begins on December 21, 2021.
Note that on January 30, the International Skating Union (ISU) revised the results of the team figure skating tournament at the 2022 Olympic Games in Beijing (China): the Russian team, due to the disqualification of Valieva , lost her gold medals and fell to third place. .
