Athletistic/ Others. Irina Viner-Usmanova sees no point in joining the Asian Gymnastics Union at this point.

“We will be able to participate in local tournaments, but the transition will not give the opportunity to participate in the Olympics. The world championships are also organized by the international federation. Asian teams are already open to cooperation with us, they come, we maintain relations. But this will not open the way to the Games. In this case, there is no point in crossing over,” Viner-Usmanova said.

Earlier it was reported that the Russian Rhythmic Gymnastics Federation is considering the possibility of moving to the Asian Confederation.
