Russia (bbabo.net), - Russian figure skater Gleb Smolkin, performing in a dance duet with Diana Davis, shared his impressions of his debut at the Olympic Games. For rhythm dance, the third couple of our team received 71.66 points (14th place).

“It's amazing that we were able to qualify for the Olympics and we had a chance to represent our country at the Games in our young years by dance standards,” Smolkin told reporters. - We are satisfied with today's performance, we look forward to the opportunity to show our free dance - tango. For us, this is a great experience. It can give a huge margin of safety in front of those who could not get here. The atmosphere in Beijing is amazing. This is felt, even despite all the anti-COVID measures.

Smolkin also correctly and clearly answered the questions of the foreign press about the situation with Kamila Valieva. Recall that Diana Davis is the daughter of Eteri Tutberidze, in whose group Valieva rides.

- We wish Camila all the best, - said Smolkin - She is a great athlete, a great skater, she definitely has a great future no matter what happened.
