Two-thirds of the votes of the delegates were required to win, so a repeat election was required. which are allotted for this process, so I will fly to Moscow next week and I will deal with it. It may have already been sent for registration to the tax office. Now I am less worried about this, I am more busy organizing competitions at the moment, » Maygurov noted. The head of the RBU also spoke about how successful the first stage of the Commonwealth Cup was in Sochi. «In general, I am pleased with how the first stage of the Commonwealth Cup went. a lot of good reviews. We pleased the spectators, there were not so many of them, but they were very active. They created an atmosphere, but the main component was the struggle on the track. It was impossible to predict the winner, thank God that there were no injuries that often happen in summer biathlon. Regarding the lack of advertising, I can say that, perhaps, more distribution could have been done among Sochi hotels. On the other hand, everyone who is interested in biathlon knew when and what was happening. We will take into account all the wishes and comments,» Maygurov added.
