Russian ex-biathlete Olga Zaitseva multiple Olympic and world medalist with good palmares spiced up with 13 victories and 46 podiums and a post-Olympic doping disqualification in Sochi 2014 recently declared her position on the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.
On the Ivezstia website he made strong comments: "When partial mobilization was decreed, my thought was why not mobilize everyone. I'm ready to go, I don't hide and I know how to shoot." continuing, the former biathlete then changed her views on the decision of the Ibu on the ban on participation in the CdM of her country, advising her colleagues to manage anger and come back stronger once the suspension is over.
Zaitseva, however, does not stop there and believes in the geographical extension of his country: "Annexing several Ukrainian regions will allow us to develop. As soon as peace returns we will work as we did in Crimea and we will have more athletes in our squad. there is no doubt I will continue to support Putin. "
Finally he points the finger at Europe "They are all influenced by anti-Russian propaganda, I hope that sooner or later everyone realizes the reality of the facts." Zaitseva concluded in his speech in the Russian newspaper.
