Russian figure skaters Heinrich Hartung and Ulyana Tashkinova will change their sports citizenship. Match TV became aware of this.
According to the source, athletes performing in single skating have already received an exemption from the Russian Figure Skating Federation (FFKKR). They will join the German national team.
16-year-old Hartung trained at the Moskvich Sports School under the guidance of Victoria Butsaeva. 14-year-old Tashkinova is at the Sokolniki Sports School with Lyudmila Kulikova.
Earlier it became known that the FFKKR assigned 15-year-old student of two-time Olympic champion Evgeni Plushenko Sofya Titova for further transfer to the Armenian national team. Karina Akopova and Nikita Rakhmanin can also join this team.
In addition, the FFKKR allowed the single skater Sofya Samodelkina, the sports couple Ekaterina Geinish – Dmitry Chigirev, and ice dancing performer Annabel Morozov to change their sports citizenship. They will move to the national teams of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and the USA, respectively.
