”I send greetings to the members of Russia's Olympic team, coaches, and everyone who helped our athletes to achieve such significant successes and participate in such an honourable way in the XX Olympic Winter Games.

During intense competitions against strong and experienced opponents you have shown professionalism, skill, endurance and, most importantly, the desire to fight right to the end.“
