MOSCOW, April 1, Sergey Pogrebnyak. Coach Alexander Zhulin believes that bronze Finnish figure skater Laura Lepisto, medalist of the 2010 World Championship, is promoting herself at the expense of Russian athletes. Earlier, Lepisto said that the figure skaters during the Beijing Olympics were morally broken, lost their childhood and sacrificed everything for the sake of competition and were not happy. At the Games in China, 18-year-old Russian Anna Shcherbakova won the singles tournament, the second was her compatriot 17-year-old Alexandra Trusova. «In my opinion, no one would have known about Lepiste if she had not talked about our athletes. These unfortunate people do their own PR in this way. Now I know who Lepisto is. Well, well done, give her a big hello, let her say something else, «said Zhulin.
