Now Sokolovskaia denied rumors about Kamila being sent to Japan.
Can't be a Russian FS season without a oui oui baguette song. Interesting choice for Yametova.
I knew it was most likely that someone made up the list because based on the AIN criteria, Valieva mosf likely will not get one.

ISU will announce neutral athletes separately for each tournament.
"Neutral athletes are announced for each individual competition within the complete list of participants," stated the ISU in response to a question about whether Alexandra Trusova and Kamila Valieva have received neutral status.
I have a private message to ISU.

The position we're in is pretty unreal with Adeliia taking a break, Dvoeglazova injured, Muravieva transferring, Gorbacheva injured...
They will probably send Zakharova despite her bombing RGPF. Sadkova seems likely and it would only be fair to send Frolova after years of service.
I just don't see how they could justify sending unproven skaters like Kamila and Sasha, though I'm not saying it won't happen.
We clearly require test skates. The decisions are not clear. Sasha could be top 3 or completely unstable.
@flanker I don't see what they mean about individual announcements. We've already seen many AIN verifications.

There are more spots for CS events than senior-eligible women. What's the problem?

This. I hope it will give a chance to a lot of skaters who were previously overshadowed by hype around others. This is when depth of the field is going to be tested and it's going to be tons of fun to see them in internationals.

I don't get it, there's no limit to how many skaters they can with AIN status?

Sure? Any Russian and Belarusian skater can sign the form and go.

This sounds OP. Extremely beneficial arrangement for Russia.

Why should there be a limit?
As it is, it looks like we've returned to the formal absence of a flag like at Worlds 2021. The rules are such that skaters are hardly able to break them.

Well, Russia just has way more chances to win than anyone else and didn't even have to earn anything. Like, I don't see why Russia would ever want to go back to being limited to 3 spots. If the best countries who didn't break any rules are limited to 3 spots, how can a country that's enemy #1 have effectively unlimited spots? They couldn't send infinite skaters to Olympic qualification because everyone knew that each country only gets 1 entry, and the AIN was clearly linked to the country from which it was applied. Maybe I'm stupid but I'm just not seeing the catch here for Russia. How are they not just in the best position possible aside from losing national statistics which realistically isn't a big deal.

The rules for spots are the same as for every other country. I thought your last question about the limit referred to the number of athletes who could be added to the website as AIN.

Well yea my message originally was speaking about who they're going to send. Then you said something about having so many CS event spots and then Lariko said she's excited to see a bunch of skaters who were overshadowed. So now I'm confused. If they only get 3 spots then how are we going to see a bunch of overshadowed skaters and what are these CS spots we're speaking about?

There are 3 spots per Challenger but there are a lot of Challengers. All senior women from the national team (who are not injured) will definitely get events.

Sorry I'm new to the international system. I did some research and I realize I mixed up Challenger / GP events and also didn't realize the difference in junior and senior assignment rules.
