Belarusian biathlete Dinara Alimbekova said that during the period of international isolation, it is important for athletes that they are not forgotten.
Alimbekova became first in Sunday’s mass start at the PARI stage of the Commonwealth Cup with a penalty on the range. The competition took place in Belarus.
— First of all, I must say thank you to the organizers. We have not organized such starts for a long time, I know that these are difficult times for Russian and Belarusian biathlon. It is good that we are given the opportunity to speak. I would like to have funds, and that people do not forget us, us the athletes. You see what great pleasure we bring to the fans,” Alimbekova said at a press conference.
On Friday, the IBU Congress decided to maintain the suspension of Russian and Belarusian biathletes from international tournaments due to the conflict in Ukraine.
