TV news clip about the AIN withdrawal. I don’t know what is being said, but just look at the sad faces. It looks as though they recruited Nagorny to front this.
I don’t for a minute believe that the gymnasts chose this for themselves.

Rodionenko presided over this meeting. He looks close to tears at times - imagine as an octogenarian having your life’s work destroyed at one sweep. We see Marinov and Listunova speaking, Polyashov present too. Some of the gymnasts present I don’t recognise. Melnikova looks devastated as does Roschina. Andreeva, so young, doesn’t know what’s happened.
FIG, are you going to make a statement?
PS - This is the FIG statement, which I admit I saw, but absent mindedly missed. The main thing is to look out for further statements after the Exec meeting early next month.
