Olympic speed skating champion Nikolai Gulyaev, elected president of the Russian Skating Union (TFR), told reporters that he expects the International Skating Union (ISU) to continue the work of the Russians in leadership positions in the organization.
– Of course, I expect the International Skating Union to include our candidates in the technical committees and the council of the ISU.
– Do you think they will accept the very rule that can cost a place in the ISU?
– Wait and watch. Neither speed skating nor short track without Russia is possible on a world level.
– In Beijing, there were two medals in short track and in skates. What tasks can you set for the next Olympics?
“I wish it was at least as good. But still, the main task at the Games is gold. Those who seek will always find, those who want will always succeed.
Gulyaev was elected president of the TFR on Friday at the Congress of Reports and Elections in Moscow. Since 2009, the President of the Russian Skating Union has been Alexei Kravtsov, who also took part in the elections. The third candidate was Vadim Morozov.
