Irina Rodnina criticized figure skater Kostomarov who got into intensive care for processing
Three-time Olympic figure skating champion, State Duma deputy Irina Rodnina criticized Roman Kostomarov, Olympic champion in ice dancing, who was in intensive care. Her words are quoted by Gazeta.Ru.
“Recycling – not only in figure skating, but in general in life – does not always bring positive results. I understand that the holidays, a lot of plans, but you are not 18 years old, ”said Rodnina. At the same time, she wished 45-year-old Kostomarov a speedy recovery.
Kostomarov was admitted to intensive care earlier than January 10. Doctors assessed his condition as serious. The figure skater was connected to an artificial lung ventilation apparatus (ALV) and to an apparatus for saturating the blood with oxygen. He was diagnosed with progressive pneumonia, intoxication of the body and sepsis.
Together with Tatyana Navka, Kostomarov became the Olympic champion in ice dancing, twice won the world championship, three times became the champion of Europe and the final of the Grand Prix series of the International Skating Union. In 2006, the duo ended their career.
