Unfortunately, despite his extensive experience, Vladimir allowed himself an inappropriate way of expressing his thoughts in connection with his work at the BRICS Games – a competition in which we, as a federal sports channel, invest a huge amount of financial resources , technical and creative. . It was decided to remove Vladimir from further work at the BRICS Games.
On my own behalf, I apologize to everyone who was forced to hear such expressions during the broadcast,” Tashchin wrote on the Telegram channel.
