Dmitry Vasiliev: “Isinbayeva does not understand the seriousness of being an officer in the Russian army. If she is ordered to go to war, she will have to go” – Athletics

Dmitry Vasilyev believes that Yelena Isinbayeva does not understand the seriousness of the officer rank.

Earlier, the two-time Olympic champion said: “I am resuming my activities in the IOC in September, as the committee has no doubts about me. The rank of major is purely nominal.

“Apparently, Yelena Isinbayeva means that she did not carry out real service. Maybe that’s why she thinks it’s not serious.

But since she took the oath, she is considered a soldier, like people who are in the ranks. Many athletes have not served in a real army, but this does not relieve them of their duties as military personnel.

She probably misunderstood. Perhaps he does not fully understand the seriousness of being an officer in the Russian army. If she is ordered to go to any military action, she will be obliged to go, ”said the two-time Olympic biathlon champion.

Isinbayeva really lives in Spain? Her daughter plays tennis in the Canaries, and Elena makes excuses in two languages
