Dalaloyan doesn’t expect to compete internationally

 Artur Dalaloyan has not applied for neutral status and does not expect to compete internationally in the near future, he says to Match TV:


‘Olympic champion Artur Dalaloyan said that he did not apply for neutral status to compete in international artistic gymnastics competitions.


đź’¬ I am currently recovering from my vacation, I competed at the Russian Cup. Let's see the training process, it is difficult for me to plan anything far ahead, but today I am just starting to recover.


❓ Will we be able to see you at international tournaments in the near future?

đź’¬ It is unlikely that we will be at international tournaments. As of today, we are still not allowed to compete in the full status of the Russian national team with a flag and anthem. This is, of course, a key factor.


❓ Did you not apply for neutral status?

đź’¬ No, — the Match TV correspondent reports Dalaloyan's words.’

Andrei Rodionenko explains Russia's performance at Worlds - Lupitatranslates

Rodionenko with European Champion David Belyavski  Courtesy RGF/Elena Mikhailova This is the interview that many people on the internet have already commented on, regarding Andrei Rodionenko's alleged racism.  The original, Russian language version, appears on VTB Bank's website (VTB are sponsors of Russian gymnastics).  It takes cleverer people than me to decide what is racism, what is deliberately perjorative, and what is inferred in an interviewer's question.  For now, I will not comment on this, therefore, but I would ask you to read Lupita's translation carefully before you form your own opinion.   I am providing some links below which might help you to decide where you stand.

Viktoria Komova - apology

Viktoria wrote some hasty words last night in the heat of the moment.  We all have such times, when hurt feelings lead us to behave uncharacteristically.  It is not important what she said; it is important that Vika has reflected and wants us all to read this message which she published on VK.com this morning. "Dear friends! I want to apologize for my statements about American girls, about drugs, all my words were spoken on emotions. Of course I haven't any proof and didn't really mean it and so on... I am so sorry. I want to apologize for my character to all of you". Vika, we are still with you every step of the way.
