Double Olympic champion Svetlana Ichmuratova in an interview with , she suggested that the current head of the organization will be elected to the post of president of the RBU Viktor Maygurov .
None of the candidates for the position of leader of the RRF obtained the 2/3 of the votes necessary for victory in the conference of reports and the elections of the organization. Current RBU Chairman Viktor Maigurov received 35 votes, Vice Chairman Alexei Nuzhdov – 18. According to the results of the vote, Maigurov was one vote short.
The second round of elections for the president of the RBU will take place at an extraordinary conference of the organization tentatively at the end of August.
“I think in the end Victor will win the election,” Ishmuratova told . – Because Maygurov went all the way – from an athlete and a coach to the head of a sports federation. I know Victor as a friendly and very honest person. We played together for a while. There were times when I turned to him for help – there was never a refusal. I can’t say anything bad about him. I will not count other people’s money in my pocket and how much someone earns. I don’t know Nuzhdov as a person at all. Probably, I would even say that this person is not so close to sports. Therefore, I cannot say anything at all about him.
Ishmuratova also disagreed with the decision to schedule the second round of elections in August.
“And the fact that the second round is scheduled for the end of August is an extra tick for the RRF, for the coaches,” Ishmuratova said. – For athletes, of course, it is to a lesser extent. But for the regions, of course, it’s a bit of a hassle. For Victor himself and his team, it’s a kind of uncertainty that will leave an imprint on their work. What more can i say ? It remains to wish good luck. Let’s see how it ends. Of course, I want the federation to function normally. Of course, two years is very little time to work on if you want a good result. I think we still have to give ourselves time: let the RRF work, and the athletes perform.
