St. Petersburg, May 31, Boris Khodorovsky. President of the St. Petersburg Figure Skating Federation, Vice-President of the Russian Figure Skating Federation Anton Sikharulidze said that he would have a conversation with Elizaveta Nugumanova and coach Evgeny Rukavitsyn, whom the athlete accused of insulting. Previously, the director of the Figure Skating School of Russia Petersburg, Tatyana Menshikova said that she sees no grounds for an internal investigation of Nugumanova's claims against Rukavitsyn. President of the FFKKR Alexander Gorshkov said that he was not aware of the situation. «It seems to me that too much attention is now being paid to the situation around Elizaveta Nugumanova,» Sikharulidze said. «We will talk with the athlete and the coach, but the degree of discussion should be reduced. It's nice that figure Skating enjoys so much attention from journalists and fans, but it's still worth focusing on the sports component.»
