The first Russian world champion in women's singles skating, coach Maria Butyrskaya believes that leaving Tutberidze will help Medvedev to stay in the lead. "I'm sure about it. Zhenya has a strong character. She did not just take this decision, "- said the famous athlete edition of" Sport Express ". No less famous Evgeni Plushenko shares the opinion of Butyrskaya.
