With upcoming parliamentary (December 2011) and presidential (March 2012) elections looming, Vladimir Putin is voicing his commitment to supporting sporting excellence.
Russia is hosting the forthcoming men's and women's European Gymnastics Championships, scheduled to appear in Moscow (not Kazan, as originally announced) between 17th and 21st April 2013. You can find more information at the UEG website. It is a bumper year for Russian international gymnastics competitions, with the Universiade taking place in the ancient city of Kazan (part of which is a UNESCO World Heritage site) in July.
