“I know deputies who are not only connected with sports, but also with life. They do not understand what a profession is. How they can even be deputies is a mystery to me. Deputies do not understand anything not only about the life of athletes, but also about the life of people in general. These are our people who glorify our homeland with their outstanding achievements. Why should they listen to such rudeness and stupidity from their country’s deputies? Deputies should be ashamed of what they said,” Tarasova is quoted by RIA Novosti.
