In a long interview with Nadezhda Strelets, Tatiana Tarasova also answered questions about Valieva’s doping case. Here’s a translation of her comment.

Q: You criticized [Eteri] Tutberidze regarding Valieva’s situation. You said that only a coach could have given her that pill.

Tatiana Tarasova: Oh… I… Yes… I don’t even want to talk about it, honestly. I’ve taken a lot of flak for it already, I wish I had stayed silent.

Q: Over the recent years, this has been the most resonant case. For us ordinary people, it seems like an unbelievable injustice. But we can’t understand how unjust it is. They must have found something, right?

Tatiana Tarasova: If they hadn’t found something, it wouldn’t have been posted.

Q: Does it look like someone made a big mistake?

Tatiana Tarasova: It seems so.

Q: Who is usually held accountable in such cases?

Tatiana Tarasova: I won’t talk about that, it’s not my question. I won’t say more about it, I’ve said it already.

Q: Do you believe she can return to professional sports?

Tatiana Tarasova: I don’t know. It depends on whether she doesn’t really put on a lot of weight.”
