Honored Coach of the USSR in Figure Skating Tatiana Tarasova commented on the news of 19 athletes who have decided to change their nationality, noting that it still happens.
Earlier it became known that since the beginning of the year, 19 skaters have applied to the Russian Figure Skating Federation (FFKKR) to change their nationality.
They don’t have competitions because they don’t take the top spots. They take places from where they do not go to the European Championships and World Championships, or even do not go to the Russian Championship at all. They themselves decide to have a chance to participate in these competitions by changing nationality. It has nothing to do with us being suspended from competition. It’s always been that way, every year. You haven’t even heard those names,” Tarasova told the championship.
