The deputy of the State Duma called the margin of safety the key to Petrosyan's victory at the Russian championship

Figure skater Adelia Petrosyan won the Russian Championship with a margin of safety. This was announced on December 21 by State Duma Deputy Irina Rodnina.

Rodnina stressed that the athlete's victory was not the result of competition, but was due to her stability in the short program and good preparatory results.

"I won the Russian championship due to the safety margin. The issue is not about competition, but about stability," she said in an interview with Metaratings.ru .

The MP also noted that there is a significant burden on Petrosyan during the season and on the eve of the Olympic Games. The athlete has been in excellent physical shape since September, which, according to Rodnina, is a difficult task.
