President of the Ukrainian Fencing Federation Mikhail Ilyashev commented on the disqualification of Ukrainian saber fencer Olga Kharlan at the World Championships due to her refusal to shake hands with Russian rival Anna Smirnova.
In his opinion, the technical referee Dieter Lammer, who made the appropriate decision, should resign after this scandal, since this decision was made due to “pressure from Russia.”
“In the video, we see that Lammer is talking to someone on the phone that coach Smirnova gave him …. Such a judge is unreliable and should retire,” Ilyashev said.
