Figure skater Elizaveta Tuktamysheva defended Margarita Mamun, who in a recent interview condemned the excessive strictness of her former mentor Irina Viner. The champion commented to Sport-Express.

The story began when Margarita in an interview commented on an old video in which the star coach scolded her. The athlete compared this mentor’s attitude to the influence of abusive parents in some families. After such an answer, many sided with Irina Alexandrovna.

However, figure skater Elizaveta Tuktamysheva also supported the gymnast: “It makes me very sad and angry that children can be exposed to violence in sports. I’ve never encountered this but I know the problem exists. “Not only in gymnastics, but also in figure skating, there are coaches and parents who are ready to do anything for the sake of the result, using methods that, in my opinion, are unethical.”
