Russian biathletes have been suspended from international competitions since February 2022.
— The next season will be the third after the suspension. Does the SBR have the same funds for organizing competitions as in the first season?
— Each season, the RBU’s expenses for organizing competitions increase. But we are working to attract new sponsors. I think it’s at the same level.
— If expenses increase, doesn’t that represent a loss for the national team?
— The costs for the national team are also getting higher and higher, because the prices of everything are increasing. But of course we try to maintain a balance. And I am absolutely sure that our team has everything necessary in the current difficult conditions. Yes, there are certain problems with contracts with foreign companies, but the question of money is not acute,” Pak told .
