Artistic director of the Raisa KVN team Stanislav Agafonov spoke about the relationship with the members of the team. In an interview with blogger Andrei Preredein on YouTube, Agafonov admitted that he sometimes prevented his wards from having partners.

According to Agafonov, he had conflicts with the team members, and many of them left the team. “The girls will not let them lie that I have, in fact, ruined their lives for many, because there are a lot of unmarried girls [from the Raisa KVN team] who still cannot find a guy,” the blogger's interlocutor admitted.

The artistic director of the team added that the wards did not manage to acquire partners, as he interfered with this. “For ten years I walked with a broom and constantly drove away some Kaveenschik and all that [from the team members],” Agafonov specified.

In an interview with Predelin, the head of the team also spoke about how women teams are perceived in KVN. According to Agafonov, if such a team begins to outplay its male rivals, questions and claims will arise. “The girls' team is positioned as a decoration of the game, [like women] to dance with at the banquet,” he lamented.

The women's KVN team “Raisa” was created in 2009. In 2012, the team performed at the festival “Voting KiViN”, after which the head of KVN Alexander Maslyakov invited him to the Major League. In the final of the Major League of 2018, the Raissa became the champions of the season. “Raisa” then lost on points, yielding first place to “Vyatka”, however, thanks to the proposal of the chairman of the jury, Konstantin Ernst, they were declared the winners together with “Vyatka”.

Vice-President of Russia Dmitry Chernyshenko considers it expedient to deprive the national symbols of the national teams of the countries whose leaders announced a diplomatic boycott of the Olympic Games in Beijing. His words are quoted by TASS.

Chernyshenko called on the national teams of the USA, Australia, Great Britain and Canada to be stripped of their flags. These countries have announced a diplomatic boycott of the Games in Beijing, their officials will refuse to attend the competitions in China.

According to Chernyshenko, such a measure will help cool hot heads. “Everyone who boycotts should be deprived of the flag, anthem and other national symbols,” the member of the government is convinced.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said that the reason for the diplomatic boycott of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing by the United States is the desire to contain the development of China. In his opinion, sport should unite peoples, but some countries use it for political purposes.

The Beijing Olympics will take place from 4 to 20 February. Russia will play at the Games in a neutral status due to the sanctions of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA).
