— How closely are you following the European Championship at the moment?
— Of course, we follow both the world series and the European Championship. Since the main forces are devoted to the Olympic Games, most countries are not represented at the European Championships, but youth teams or other countries participate. The level dropped a lot at the European Championships, so we will keep an eye on the Olympics,” Kolesnichenko said on .
The BRICS Games will take place from June 12 to 23 in the capital of Tatarstan.
The competition will be broadcast on the channels of the Match sub-holding, as well as on streaming platforms.
