The Chairman of the High Council of the Handball Federation of Russia Sergey Shishkarevexpressed confidence that the national team of Russia will perform at the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
— I really believe that we will go there. I don’t know, where does this confidence come from. Probably, on the grounds of life, political, economic experience… I’m sure, we will be allowed to compete at international competitions, we will fight our way any way. Neither France, nor Norway will have an easy way in Los Angeles. I suppose, we will beat them at early stages and will confidently play with any rival and become the Olympic champions again.
— How does communication with the International Handball Federation develop?
— It occurs in private messages. I’m constantly in touch with Hassan Moustafa. We communicate every month: how is it going, how is family, how are girls… I see that he is writing himself. I send him three pages of text and I receive in response: "I love you! Take care!" I am in contact with the Slovenians, Spanish, Hungarians… And less with our Danish and Norwegians sworn friends. Our absence is partly beneficial to someone. And those, who are for true sports fighting, lack the national team of Russia.
It is said that synchronized swimmers were allowed to international competitions. Hassan is two hands for it, and we would have been there a long time ago without European lobby. We need to be patient. 2025 will be a key year. Everything will turn out, — Sport Express quotes Sergey shishkarev’s words.
