“I believe that this is unsportsmanlike behavior, it is unfair. While Loginov has negative doping tests, other athletes should recognize and respect him as an individual, as an athlete ... Now he is showing excellent results. I think the point is respect. I think this behavior cannot be justified, ”said Walloni in an interview with RT.
Loginov, who had served a two-year suspension for doping, won the sprint race at the World Cup stage in Oberhof, Germany. Fourcade called it a disgrace, and Samuelsson shook Loginov’s hand, but later said that the Russian citizen should have apologized "to the whole biathlon family."
Earlier it was reported that Fourcade and Be shook hands with Loginov during the flower ceremony after the pursuit in Oberhof.
