Adaev’s student Ivan Shtyl had already passed the Olympic selection and received a license, but the International Olympic Committee ultimately did not allow him to participate in the Paris Olympics. The couple Shtyl and Alexei Korovashkov would have been one of the favorites in Paris; they won gold at the 2024 European Championship. The death of Dima Adaev is also on the conscience of the IOC officials, this is my personal opinion. Adaev was depressed after his student Shtyl was not allowed to participate in the Olympics, he was very sad, “Arkhipov quotes Match TV.
