Olympic short track speed skating champion Ruslan Zakharov believes that most athletes do not like to compete only within the country and want more.
Russian speed skaters have been suspended from participating in competitions under the auspices of the International Skating Union (ISU) due to the situation in Ukraine.
— The 2022/23 season was psychologically difficult. Then we adapted to the Russian starts, to all the movements and locations of the competitions. This season (2023/24) it has caused fewer negative emotions. In principle, nothing has changed, the next season brings new expectations and hopes.
I am sure that 99% of reasonable athletes do not like to run only within the country, they want something more,” Zakharov told .
