Olympic ice dancing champion Natalia Bestemyanova believes that real professional athletes are waiting for the return of Russians to the international scene.
On Friday, reported that on September 28 in Lausanne (Switzerland), the Council of the International Skating Union (ISU) will consider the issue of admitting Russian athletes to international tournaments.
— Figure skating fans are of course waiting for our return to international tournaments. And you have to ask them about the athletes themselves. But I always assume that when people face worthy and strong opponents, tournaments become more interesting for everyone. It is more honorable to defeat a strong opponent than a weak one,” Bestemyanova quotes Sport24.
Russian figure skaters, speed skaters and short track speed skaters have been suspended from competitions under the auspices of the ISU.
