Athletistic / Figure skating. Russian world figure skating champion Elizaveta Tuktamysheva has spoken about a possible return to the sport. According to her, this could happen if Russian athletes return to international competitions.
“I haven’t thought about next season yet. I can’t say that only admission to international competitions will influence my decision, but it is a really important element. I have seen the fans’ posters. I I was very touched by it, it was incredibly pleasant,” he quotes the words of Tuktamysheva NEWS.ru.
In the 2022/2023 season, Elizaveta Tuktamysheva managed to win twice at the stages of the Russian Cup (in Moscow and Perm), as well as win a bronze medal at the national championship. During her career, she became a world champion (2015) and a world championship silver medalist (2021). She also has medals in all World Team Championship events.
In March 2022, the International Skating Union (ISU) suspended Russian and Belarusian athletes from participation in competitions under its auspices, against the backdrop of recommendations from the IOC. The reason for this decision was a special military operation of the Russian armed forces on the territory of Ukraine.
