Commentator and presenter of the television channel “” Dmitri Guberniev in a conversation with a correspondent, he advised Russian biathletes to stop preparing for the 2026 Olympics.
Previously, the Russian Biathlon Union (RBU) published the composition of the coaching groups to prepare for the 2023/24 season. Alexander Loginov, Anton Babikov, Victoria Slivko and Svetlana Mironova were not among them.
Last season, Loginov and Babikov were part of Sergei Bashkirov’s group, Mironova trained with Artem Istomin, and Slivko was part of the Tyumen region team. Loginov finished the previous season earlier than expected in December 2022 due to health issues.
– I don’t know exactly what Loginov’s plans are. But if a person has chosen the path of self-training, he does not end his career. It is the most important. I really want to see Sasha at competitions.
I want to advise biathletes to stop preparing for the Olympics, to which we will not go. It is necessary for all the strongest to perform at maximum starts in Russia, Guberniev told .
The 2026 Winter Olympics will take place in Milan and Cortina d’Ampezzo from February 6 to 22.
