Not sure if this is a repeat. We all forget too quickly of what a gift it has been to the world that the Russian influence and artistry has been shared. Since it is fun to "stir a pot". Has this been to the detriment of Russian skaters at home? The rest of the world has certainly shown the benefits.

"Leonova will be training with Morozov, who has until recently worked with Ando"

I didn't know that Ando left Morozov. (and that Leonova will be with Morozov).

I also can't imagine that Morozov decided not to coach any non Russian skaters, considering how many of them he has.
