“The problem is that they themselves believe in their fantasies and fairy tales.” Shvetsky – about Seppelt

Former Russian figure skating team doctor Philipp Shvetsky told that journalist Hajo Seppelt and others like him really believe what they say in the media, trying to convey these “fantasies” to society, including in Russia.

The basis of the lawsuit against Seppelt was the journalist’s film about the doping case of Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva, which spoke about Shvetsky’s possible involvement in doping the athlete’s body. Seppelt also claimed that the doctor was involved in the scandal of disqualifying six Russian rowers before the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. The claim was registered on July 26, 2023. Shvetsky won the case in the Nikulinsky District Court of Moscow; later, the Moscow City Court rejected Seppelt’s appeal against this decision.

— The problem is that they themselves believe in their fantasies and fairy tales. And they force society, including ours, to doubt. This was their task, and in some way they even succeeded at first. And only after a while we managed to prove him wrong. As they say, there is power in truth, so we will win, “Shvetsky told the correspondent.
