The debate between Russian figure skating coach Eteri Tutberidze and American journalist Dave Lees turned into a controversial subject in the two countries’ media, where the first described the second as “full of boredom”.
It came following Dave Less sparked speculation that Tutberids’ daughter Diana Davis might move with ice dancing partner Gleb Smolkin to the US national team.
It was said that Davis, who was born in the United States, married Smolkin there, but the American journalist gave the talk regarding her a character linked to the Russian dimension, in the last episodes of his TV show.
