The head of the external communications department of the French Ice Sports Federation (FFSG), Agathe Zhanna, appreciated the news that Russian figure skaters Annabelle Morozov and Igor Eremenko want to change their sports citizenship. Her words are quoted by Sport24.

Zhanna denied the reports, adding that the federation had no contact with Russian athletes. It is noted that the couple did not contact FFSG.
