«»In general, it's great. They now take part in all our speed skating competitions too. I'm very glad that the guys have a platform. They have a much smaller country than ours, and the competition would be very small, and so, training and by performing in Russia, they, of course, expand the possibilities of their skills. They are with us everywhere and are great for being our brothers who support us. Well, unfortunately, it partly turned out that they found themselves in this situation, but they persevere through it.» , — said Zhurova.
