“” host and commentator Dmitri Guberniev commenting on the situation with biathlon competitions in Izhevsk, which took place without shooting, said that he was worried about the situation with biathlon in Udmurtia.
Earlier, the head of the Udmurt Biathlon Federation, Ivan Cherezov, told that the Republican competitions “USSR-Russian Memory Cup ZT Mikhail Vladimirovich Tkachenko” among boys and girls aged 15-18 in Izhevsk went without shooting due to the fact that they did not have time to buy cartridges.
– I would not transfer the full degree of responsibility to the Udmurt Biathlon Federation, although, of course, this should have been taken care of in advance. But here, in the current conditions, in principle, biathlon is difficult in itself, it is true. In any case, both Cherezov, my good comrade, who heads the regional federation, and those who organize the competitions, must be aware of this. If something doesn’t work for you guys, give it to other regions, they’ll buy cartridges. Children shouldn’t suffer, it’s true. These are all excuses for the poor. If children are hurting, adults are doing something wrong. I really hope that Cherezov will rectify this situation.
We need to communicate more closely with the National Guard on transportation, transport, purchase of weapons, ammunition, etc. The rules are serious. And if someone does not have the opportunity, and these opportunities will be even fewer, both financially and otherwise, the competitions must be redirected to other regions which can afford to organize them. If we talk about All-Russian competitions.
In general, of course, I am concerned about the situation in Udmurt biathlon. It is not the richest republic. I really hope that Cherezov and the Republican budget will somehow improve the situation. Athletes are leaving this region, Povarnitsyn is gone, Yemerkhonov wants to run for Tatarstan, Guberniev told a correspondent.
