— This is the most emotional moment of my biathlon career. I did it sincerely and not out of pity. Just out of respect for Christina and her mother. This family is friendly to me. I couldn’t do anything differently.

— When you were leading the race, did you really ask and were you ready to give up this race?

– No, I didn’t ask. Someone must have found this. Maybe it’s a rumor or someone wanted me to do this. But that would be a mistake on my part. This would probably be offensive to Christina. I think I did the right thing. I had no doubt. Yes, it (the globe) is dear to me, it is the first globe in history. Of course, I would like him to stay with me.

– They prepare a duplicate for you. Are you waiting?

– Duplicate? Well, I don’t know when it will happen (smile), Slivko said on .
