Russian figure skater Shanaeva spoke about threats on social media

Russian figure skater Elizaveta Shanaeva who practices ice dancing, said he received threats on social media after an incident on the stage of the Russian Grand Prix in Krasnoyarsk in October 2023.

At last year’s Russian Grand Prix, during warm-up, Shanaeva hit her leg with her skate. Annabelle Morozova and cut it, the athlete received several stitches. As a result, Morozov and Eremenko withdrew from the Russian Grand Prix stage after the rhythm dance.

“I’ve never encountered so much hatred before.” When this happened, I thought, “Well, maybe if it was on purpose it would hurt me.” ” At first I did not react to this situation, because I thought that everything was fine with Annabelle – I looked: she seemed to be standing, everything seemed to be fine, she was warming up. Honestly, I don’t even remember them taking it off the ice.

I remember looking at their grades – the grades were normal. In other words, if it was something serious, she probably would have pulled out. Or the points would be lower. It all happened in such a commotion that I didn’t really understand what was happening to him.

Alexander Zhulin also came up to me and asked: “How are you?” How can I set you up in a special way? He monitored my condition, supported me, said: “Everything is fine, nothing, go for a walk.”

But all was not well on social media. There were real threatening messages. Under my positive message, more than a hundred comments were left about my poor health. People wrote: “If you get hit in the head, it’s for Annabelle.” » Moreover, their avatars are neither cats nor rabbits. They were real, live people with real photos… I walked and looked around.

Regarding excuses. I was accused of not being there, but in one of the interviews, on my heels, I said: “If it was me, then I apologize.” » I am the person who can accidentally push you somewhere, step on your foot and I will automatically apologize.

I remember that on the day of “arbitrariness”, Annabelle was laughing and smiling. I think: “Well, thank God everything passed.” Yes, then she felt pain and they left. But we didn’t know that. Initially, the person was positive.

Now Morozov and I no longer communicate. I can’t say we were friends before, at most “hello, hello,” Shanaeva told Sport24.
