Four-time Olympic champion Alexander Tikhonov commented on the remark by the head of the Russian Biathlon Union (RBU) Vladimir Drachev about the possible reduction of the national team.
– Everything that Drachev says is nonsense of an illiterate person. All he needs to say: “I will resign!” This will be the biggest gift to the Russian biathlon and our fans. I think that next year he will not be president. If you have enough conscience at all. We see what is happening. My criminal case is hanging on my site, so another life awaits him. Idiots! Bring to this state and continue to do so.
– They finished completely biathlon in Russia. There are no international starts, nothing. All regions complain that there is no means of subsistence. Nightmare! If athletes listen and recover normally, then Mironova can compete. I swear that they would have run without questions from me, especially Eliseev, Loginov and Mironova. They would compete with me. My team had no stars, we had 11 people in biathlon, everything is in order. But in Russia, the better, the worse. So why be surprised?
– Drachev says about the complex in Sochi that it doesn’t work out there. Dumbass! How did we win before? We and Sochi did not have. I’ve headed a biathlon for 13 and a half years, why couldn’t I listen? I would disperse this whole gang and take responsibility. Then for sure everything would be different. With Noritsyn, in general, all interviews are stupid, ”Tikhonov said.
Earlier, Russian biathletes broke their own anti-record by spending 26 races of the World Cup without medals. The next start for athletes will be the World Cup, which will be held from February 12 to 23 in Italy.
