MOSCOW, February 26, Alexander Govorov. International Ski Federation (FIS ) should not bend under Norway and exclude Russia from participation in the competition, four-time Olympic champion Alexander Tikhonov said. Earlier on Saturday, the Norwegian Ski Federation opposed the participation of Russian athletes in international competitions that will be held on the territory of the country. From 3 to 6 March, the World Cup in cross-country skiing, biathlon and ski jumping will be held in Drammen and Holmenkollen, and on March 17-20 — the World Cup in biathlon.
"Norwegians have been brawlers all their lives. All life finish in snot. I can't stand them, to be honest. The face of Norwegian biathlon is (Anders) Besseberg. This is a drunkard and a debauchee — it's better to let them watch the athletes who wipe their drool after the finish. Everyone eats the same thing, every single one. FIS should decide on the removal of Russia. The Norwegians are always so bad. FIS should not bend under the Norwegians. Today under them, and tomorrow under someone else. What is this organ then? I think that everything will be fine and ours will continue to perform at the World Cup", — said Tikhonov.
