Honored coach Tatyana Tarasova spoke about the possible departure of CSKA athletes due to new requirements for admission of Russian athletes to international IOC competitions.”Of course, people will think about leaving. In CSKA, not only Trusova, but also our national champion (Mark Kondratyuk). The management of CSKA has to think about what to do so that people don’t leave them”, said Tarasova.The IOC has put forward a number of requirements regarding the participation share of Russian and Belarusian athletes. Thus, only individual athletes under neutral status, who are not associated with armed forces and security agencies, may be allowed to compete.
