MOSCOW, January 2, Alexander Sergeev. Defender of the Russian youth hockey team Vladimir Grudinin said that the stewards on the plane were very careful to ensure that the passengers were always wearing masks. Earlier, a source said that the players of the youth teams of Russia and the Czech Republic were removed from the flight in Canada for violating the rules of conduct. Hockey players were returning home after the canceled World Cup in Canada due to cases of coronavirus. «In fact, at first they had no idea what was happening, only then we were told that because of the masks. They take it very seriously, we could sit a little — Having slightly lowered the mask, the stewards immediately approached and very harshly asked to put it on. They repeat several times, and then apply such harsh measures, «Grudinin told reporters.
