– The problem with travel still exists, mainly due to the transport component. Now it is very difficult for us to get there, and for him from there. I would not like to comment further. Everything about the family is personal. There is always an opportunity to see each other, but at the moment, at the family council, we decided that for the time being I would be here, and he would be in Austria. He has a job under a contract, it requires constant traveling, that is, he is not permanently in Austria. Therefore, we have decided to proceed in this way.
There were no problems crossing the borders. Prices, of course, have grown, but for obvious reasons and within reason. I am never happy that prices are rising, but it was possible to get there, both there and back, ”Championat” quotes Yurlova-Perht.
Yurlova-Perkht is a world and European champion, as well as a seven-time Russian champion.

– Of course not. I would give everything to the audience, look how many people there are. How can you be upset with third place if so many people came to support us?

On Wednesday it became known that the RBU filed a lawsuit with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) to challenge the exclusion of athletes from Russia from competing under the auspices of the IBU.
At the moment, the venues for the World Championships are distributed until 2029 inclusive.
