Athletistic/ Others. Olympic champion in cross-country skiing, two-time Olympic champion in biathlon Anfisa Reztsova believes that the withdrawal of Russian athletes from participation in international tournaments will remain in effect for a long time.
“I would like to be heard. Is it absurd or not absurd – to start without the Russians? I don’t know, but I want everything to go well. I think it will last a long time,” Reztsova said.
Earlier, figure skating coach Eteri Tutberidze called it “absurd” that in the absence of Russian athletes at international starts, the International Skating Union (ISU) keeps updating the rankings and distribute titles to athletes.
