FYI Kyrylo posted an update on his GoFundMe page today, and he is halfway to his goal, and was able to purchase tickets to compete in the Latvian Junior Grand Prix event. An excerpt:

I want to say a big thank you to everyone who decided to support me and transferred money to me. With the collected money, I was able to buy tickets for my first Grand Prix stage of this season in Riga. I am very grateful to everyone who helped, but in order to raise the whole amount I need more help from you, that is why I ask you to repost my GoFundMe link and this post. Doing this you will help me a lot!!! Thanks for your attention, your help and support!

This year, Filmfest Hamburg (29 September-8 October) will host film-festival participants from the Ukrainian capital, Kyiv, for the first time. “We will be happy to provide the Molodist Kyiv International Film Festival with the use of our festival sites in Hamburg,” says Albert Wiederspiel, director of the German event.

Ivan Shmuratko's post earlier today (Sept. 8): https://www.instagram.com/p/CiQcm-soA0N/

As for the time of writing these words I've left the team of Michael Huth, Robert Dierking and Anna Bernauer.
I'm beyond grateful to their team for organizing my life & training process here in Oberstdorf and giving me a chance to skate, the thing I need for living.
Next stepping stone for me would be Nebelhorn Trophy, which is in less than two weeks from now, so I have to stay focused and continue giving my best on the ice every day.
I know you have a lot of questions, but I think if you are reading till here you probably trust me. Everything is alright, it's not a problem, just a puzzle to solve.
I will give you an update about my new coaching team as soon as possible.

As Timon and Pumbaa said- "Hakunamatata"
Have a good night, we are moving forward...

Sincerely,
IS

Cross-posting Phil Hersh's very compelling article on Anastasiia Smirnova and Danil Siianytsia here and in the U.S. Pairs news thread:

With war at home in Ukraine, Anastasiia Smirnova and Danil Siianytsia persevere and embrace skating for the U.S.

Anastasiia Smirnova and Danil Siianytsia dream of representing the U.S. at the Olympics, while their families remain in their native Ukraine amid war.

olympics.nbcsports.com

Excerpts:

Dnipro, a city of nearly one million inhabitants in east-central Ukraine, had been largely spared the war’s horror until Saturday, when a Russian missile devastated most of a civilian apartment block and killed more than 40 people. The missile destroyed some six dozen apartments and also blew out windows in nearby residential buildings, displacing many other people.
Via text message, Oltmanns said the families of both Smirnova and Siianytsia were safe.
“I feel really bad waking up and seeing the news like that, that the places where you were hanging out with your friends as a young kid are being destroyed and also I feel really sad for the people that were impacted by that explosion,” Siianytsia said in a Sunday text message forwarded by the coach.

Both Smirnova, 18, and Siianytsia, 22, last saw members of their families in person after the World Junior Figure Skating Championships nine months ago in Estonia. Smirnova’s mother was able to get from a refugee camp in Poland to Estonia. Siianytsia saw his mother and sister, now 5 years old, at a refugee camp in Poland, where they spent three months immediately following the Russian invasion. Their mothers eventually returned to Ukraine to be with their husbands, who under the country’s wartime martial law can’t leave in case they are called to fight.
Siianytsia’s mother, stepfather, sister and stepbrother and Smirnova’s mother, stepfather and stepsister all have been back for several months in Dnipro, which has become home to more than 100,000 refugees from besieged far eastern Ukraine. Danger sirens have sounded in Dnipro more than 1,000 times in the past 11 months, but nearly all have fortunately not been followed by an attack.

“As a male who could serve (in the military), I felt guilty I had left,” Siianytsia said. “We both talked to therapists.”
He talks with his family at least once a day, she multiple times. Both their stepfathers serve in a local defense group that Siianytsia likened to a neighborhood watch.
“I read pro-Ukrainian news only, to go with the positive instead of the negative,” he said. “That helps a little.”

From an interview with Ivan and Violetta

Before the [full-scale] war, the situation was actually not too bad. Two more younger pairs started practicing with our coach, who could already compete in the Advanced Novice category, and after a year or two - in the juniors. But now they live in different countries: in Finland, Israel, one guy came to Germany to join us. That's why, unfortunately, there is no one in Ukraine for juniors except for us.

Suomeen kesäkuussa muuttanut ukrainalainen Kyrylo Marsak, 17, kilpaili viikonloppuna Suomen maajoukkueen Kesäkisassa.

www.skatingfinland.fi

Valtter Virtanen and his wife/coach Alina Meyer-Virtanen invited Kyrylo Marsak to train with them, and offered him a place to stay. He also took part in the Team Finland internal 'test competition' last weekend.

Thanks @IDC a.k.a. Ritti for tweeting this follow-up (March 4) Finnish article on Kyrylo Marsak (21st at Euros, 15th at Junior Worlds; Worlds in Japan is next) that includes some nice photos:

Sota muutti taitoluistelija Kyrylo Marsakin elämän ja toi hänet 17-vuotiaana Suomeen: "Pelkään vanhempieni puolesta – siskoni on turvassa Puolassa"

Kun Venäjä hyökkäsi Ukrainaan, miljoonat pakenivat sotaa. Ukrainan taitoluistelumaajoukkueeseen kuuluva Kyrylo Marsak oli yksi heistä.

seura.fi

Machine translated excerpts:

Otto and Christa Mayer, Alina's parents from Germany, took Kyrylo to live in Vaajakoski. Otto and Christa had moved to Finland to be close to their grandchild, Valtteri and Alina's 2-year-old daughter. Christa, who is retired, lives in Finland permanently, but Otto, as an IT entrepreneur, travels between Finland and Germany.
"I've had a good life, so I want to help others," Otto says on the phone.
"We are like a small family and very close," Kyrylo says and smiles.
A smile brings warmth to a serious face and brown eyes light up.

At the time of the interview, Kyrylo has just participated in the first European Championships of his career in Espoo. He reached the 21st place, and the young man is not satisfied with the result. With the short program and advancing to the next round, skating looked promising, but in the morning before the figure skating free program, Kyrylo received very bad news.
"My coach in Ukraine had passed away. The morning was difficult and I had to hide my emotions all day because I had to focus on the race. It affected my performance.”
Kyrylo knew that his coach was sick, but the parents had wanted to protect Kyrylo from the seriousness of the illness. After his own free program, Kyrylo let his emotions out and he got to talk with fellow competitors and his coach Alina.

During his stay in Finland, Kyrylo has kept in touch with his family by phone using FaceTime. However, there are a lot of power outages in Ukraine, and FaceTime calls are not possible without an internet connection.
"Parents may be without electricity and heat for 12 hours straight. However, I try to keep in close contact with them. They don't always tell me everything about their situation because they want to protect me."
Kyrylo's father is 47 years old and conscripted, and naturally cannot leave the country. The mother, on the other hand, wants to stay by her husband's side.
"Fortunately, father has not been sent to the front, at least not yet. However, you never know when the invitation will come. I fear for my parents. Fortunately, my sister is safe in Poland," says Kyrylo.
Just over a year ago, Kyrylo could not have imagined something like this happening, when his whole life was still ahead of him.
"I can't know about tomorrow. I am so angry and tired of this war. I haven't been home for almost a year. I've never been away from my family for more than two weeks before," Kyrylo says - and adds:
"I cannot return to Ukraine until the end of the war. I hope the war will end soon."

Interview with Kyrylo Marsak after his SP
Some quotes

About the help of the Finnish "Peurunka Figure Skating Academy" in Laukaa
Thanks to this club, I am where I am. If it wasn't for Alina and Valtter [Virtanen], I don't know if I would have managed to improve my skating so much. They help me a lot. I still skate almost for free. Alina is a good coach, we worked well. She helped me make my name. Presentation, skating skills became much better. I have a stability that I didn't have before.
Do I plan to continue training there? Yes. As unfortunate as it may be, I have no one to train with in Ukraine. Therefore, I will return to Finland. My coaching staff is there now.

About the presence of Russian coaches at the World Cup, in particular Eteri Tutberidze
It's unpleasant to be on the same rink with them, but we can't do anything about it, unfortunately. That's what I do [ignore them]. They don't interest me, and I don't interest them.

About returning to Ukraine
I am very happy that I will be able to see my parents. Of course I want to go home and I'll go, but I'm not sure if it's safe enough there.
Also my relatives in Kherson: grandmother, grandfather, aunt. There is shelling there almost every day. It is very difficult for me to think about it. They were under occupation: they spent [in Kherson] the whole time and are still there."

Interview with Ivan Shmuratko

He returned to Kyiv in order to be closer to his doctor. So far, he cannot train on the ice, so he has been training only in the gym for about 2 months. He hopes to compete again next season.
Also, he has not yet chosen a main coach.

About Russian figure skaters, as well as about those who live and train there:

To fight with the fact that someone deliberately travels to russia or lives there... Everyone made their choice. Throughout the year, Ukrainian athletes have been trying to explain to the international community why [russians and Belarusians] were excluded, why sports are part of propaganda, and so are athletes. Unfortunately, not everyone still understands these problems and continues to miss some competitors from there

So when exactly has Eteri openly supported the war?
IIRC she has remained rather silent about it.

Out of the Russian coaches who vocally support the war and Putin, only Plushenko, Tarasenko and Sokolovskaya come to mind.

At the beginning of the war there were Z's everywhere was. Yes she has been quiet for a while as part of her strategy and by kissing Putin's as* on the one side she was able to move around and get her daughter and son-in-law out of harms way and situated for continuing their careers. She is now back in the thick of things moving and grooving. Which one of the entourage do you think carries the drugs for their students competing outside of Russia. Eteri has no soul.

Eteri does have her flaws and errors, but parading around Zs and praising Putin for the war is something she has never done. In fact, she also wanted to have all the Zs removed from the ice rinks her show was performed at.

If you want to hate Eteri so much you can find a lot of other things to hate her for, there is plenty of stuff out there even without her supporting the war.

Championship of Ukraine: the war makes adjustments (April 11, 2023) by Dmitry Putintsev

The regular championship of Ukraine in figure skating, which ended recently, was not marked by the mass of participants: due to the war against Ukraine launched by the Russian aggressors, many Ukrainian figure skaters could not participate in the competition.

Four athletes competed in men's single skating. The victory was expectedly won by Kyrylo Marsak (Kyiv), who is successfully performing in the current season. He scored 210.46 points, significantly ahead of his rivals. The silver medalist was Gleb Smotrov from Bila Tserkva – 180.82, the bronze medalist was Serhiy Sokolov from Odesa with a result of 151.76 points.
Valery Karasyov, another representative of the White Church, took fourth place - 142.21.

In women's single skating, ten skaters took to the ice. Anastasia Gozhva (Kyiv), who scored 162.30 points, climbed to the top of the podium. The second place went to Taisia Spesivtseva (Kyiv) – 147.39, and Elizaveta Babenko from Kharkiv rounded out the top three – 141.95.
The remaining participants showed the following results:
4. Maria Andriychuk (Bila Tserkva) – 133.55
5. Sofia Grigorenko (Odesa) – 127.17
6. Tetyana Firsova (Kyiv) – 113.55
7. Maria Milinchuk (Kyiv) – 104.11
8. Maria Larionova (Odesa) – 101.48
9. Emilia Kryakhova (Bila Tserkva) – 81.76
10. Maryna Karateeva (Kyiv) – 71.35.

As a reminder, 21-year-old Anastasia Gozhva is the champion of Ukraine in 2016, a two-time silver medalist (2017 and 2022) and a two-time bronze medalist (2018 and 2020) of the championships of Ukraine.
18-year-old Kyrylo Marsak is the bronze medalist of the Championship of Ukraine-2022.
