Ukrainian Olympians Vernaiev and Radivilov meet with Prime Minister Arseny Yatsenyuk

As Russia's Ministry of Sport released an interview with Valentina Rodionenko in which the Head Coach requested assistance to develop gymnastics in Crimea (see earlier post), Ukraine's vault and rings ace Igor Radivilov posted this picture of himself with team mate Oleg Verniaiev and Ukraine Prime Minister Arseny Yatsenyuk.

Does anyone know what this event was, when it took place, and what the awards are?

The Liukin's Nico tells me that this was an award handed out in May ... so it might just be coincidence that Igor chose to post it now.

    1. "He's telling Russia to fuck off..." Like that is going to change anything. So far the U.S. and the EU have said the same thing we their sanctions but looks like Russia is ignoring them and making plans with China. Right now the Russian team seems to be making plans for a GYM at the Crimea so that "fuck off" is useless.

    3. I'm fine, thank you. But if I wasn't, then a snickers won't do. I don't get easily exited with candy or with thinking someone's else opinion on this matters LOL

    5. It is not that only my opinion matters. It is just that "fuck off Russia" is laughable due to the real life circumstances Ukraine is at.

  2. Sorry to make an unrelated comment, but there is a lot of buzz suggesting Kramarenko is out with injury. Have you heard anything about it - if it is true and what the injury might be?

  3. There is a picture on Katya's Instagram of her ankle in a brace and a note saying 'sprained'. That is all I know - nothing conclusive.
