– Pavel Rostovtsev said that he considered your position in the election of the President of the RBU “the height of dishonesty”, since the federation of the Yamalo-Nenets district recommended that you vote for Viktor Maigurov, and you you voted for Alexei Nuzhdov. It’s true?
– Rostovtsev’s words should be commented on by Rostovtsev himself.
– How was it really?
– In order to participate in the declaration and election conference, the YNAO federation filed an official document in which I was indicated as a delegate authorized to express his will. Within the framework of the trust, I was entitled to make the choice that I had made.
– Was it agreed in advance or was the decision taken personally by you?
– The federations send delegates with a position already worked out, it is a common practice. This is not the opinion of a single person who comes to vote as he pleases. I won’t reveal all the interior kitchen, but I made my choice.
– The YNAO Federation will not ask you for it?
— What can complaints be? I am not an outsider, I have been a member of the YNAO federation for a long time, and in biathlon for a very long time. I worked as a coach in a regional team, now I coach the national team, I know inside how RRF works and our whole sport. Therefore, I do not understand the essence of the problem.
– The main thing is simple: according to Rostovtsev, you should have voted for one candidate and voted for another. This does not correspond to the position of the YNAO federation.
– In such cases, I always remember Svetlana Sleptsova and her golden words, taken out of context: “We don’t owe anyone anything.” I can say the same thing about the YNAO federation, it only cares about the development of biathlon. It is unlikely that in such a situation outside recommendations would be necessary. I hope Rostovtsev said it about emotions. But if not, I would like to ask a question: how does the adviser to the governor of the Krasnoyarsk Territory know who voted at the conference?
However, I will leave that to myself. And I would advise Rostovtsev to restrain his emotions next time. I consider his attack on me to be absolutely incorrect and unnecessary.
– Was your voice influenced by the financial program proposed by Needs to ensure the start of the upcoming season?
– Without a doubt.
– Are you at training camp now?
— Yes, in Ufa, where we have excellent conditions. Everything is clear and fresh. In the future, training camps in Rybinsk, on the Seminsky Pass and in Sochi, where we plan to move at the end of August, are planned.
– Is it difficult to prepare, knowing that the season will be purely national?
“What if they don’t want to see us in Europe?” We focus on the Russian calendar. Why don’t the best athletes run in their own country?
