Figure skating coach Tatyana Tarasova and Olympic ice dancing champion Tatyana Navka are in solidarity with the position of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who said that transgender people threaten women's sports. They told RIA Novosti about this.

“I am in solidarity with Putin. They can change anything, but women must compete with women, men with men. At least you can call yourself a girl, but if you were a man, then there is nothing to be ashamed of. The other is completely power in men. Disgrace is happening, ”Tarasova said.

Putin called the threats posed by transgender people to women's sports Others According to Navka, it would be unfair sport if a man competes with women. “Then all men will wear skirts and say that they are women. I would really not want this to happen in figure skating, ”Navka said.

Putin said earlier at a large annual press conference that women's sports would cease to exist if male reassigned men were allowed to compete.

New Zealand weightlifter Laurel Hubbard became the first transgender person in the history of the Olympic Games. She competed at the Tokyo Olympics, but could not take the starting weight, which is why she ended up with a zero result.
