Russian figure skating champion 2015 Elena Radionova told that she hoped Russians would soon be allowed to participate in international tournaments.
On Thursday, the President of the Russian Skating Union, Nikolai Gulyaev, told that the question of the possible admission of Russian athletes was on the agenda of the Council of the International Skating Union (ISU) . The ISU Council will take place on September 27-28.
— Of course, the ISU could consider the possibility of admitting Russians. But it is not a fact that they will allow it. They can simply look at the issue as it was before. But of course we are waiting for quick news and hope that we will be allowed in,” Radionova told .
Russian figure skaters, speed skaters and short track speed skaters are currently suspended from participating in international competitions under the auspices of the ISU.
