On March 8, Beijing time, the South Korean media "Sports Times" reported some remarks about the famous Russian figure skating coach Alexander Zhulin according to the sports.ru news, Alexander Zhulin said publicly in an interview: The situation is indeed very complicated, it is difficult to predict, a large number of figure skaters change their nationality, and transfer is inevitable.
According to the previous statement of the International Skating Federation, the Russian figure skating team did not have the opportunity to participate in the Figure Skating World Championships held in Montpellier, France, and the event will start on March 23. The Russian-Austrian figure skating team's Vallieva, Trusova, Sherbakova, ice dance duo Snikina/Kasarapov, pair skaterS tarava/Morozov, Mishnah/Garimov are not on the isot list for the FIU World Championships, all of which have won medals at the Beijing Winter Olympics.
The article reads that because many events have refused to participate in Russian athletes, cyclist Pavel Sibakov has changed his nationality to France, he is now a French-Russian dual national, he has given up being a Russian representative instead of representing France. Similarly, it is inevitable for Russian figure skaters to change their nationality to play for other countries, because the athlete's career is not long.
Alexander-Zhulin also said: "Our figure skaters are the strongest in the world, and even some female skaters are stronger than male athletes in other countries, the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics gold medal won by Sherbakova, silver medalist Trusova, Wallieva, Tursova are all well-known players, they may be robbed by many countries.
It's not fair for them to spend their lives on sports, and losing their qualifications to participate in international competitions is a huge blow. If the situation is not properly resolved, it should also be understood that they are fighting on behalf of other countries.
Alexander-Jurin, 58, is a figure skating coach who is currently the head coach of Trusova, Victoria Sinichina/Nikita Katersalapov, Walyeva and others, his words are absolutely pivotal, it seems that there are other plans within figure skating, after all, the peak of figure skaters is very short.
The South Korean media "Sports Times" suggested that the three dolls change their nationality together, because it is a huge loss to not have them at the World Championships, but the Korean media did not let them join the South Korean team, which is already very benevolent, after all, most of the Korean media have no lower limit.
