Alexandra Trusova

To go where? She has parents and I think three little brothers picking up and moving to another country is not that easy.
Personally, I am happy to say duh, Canada! Canada is an awesome country. If they have 4 kids, all the more reasons to make a run for it, as all their futures are threatened, but Trusova's--the most. Let the Olympic Champion stay. Trusova deserves more.

Most countries are not taking in Russians at this time. That may change if there's ever a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine or if the war ends in the Spring or summer. But for now I don't think Sasha can leave even if she wants to.

Well, the moment it's possible. Fingers crossed she doesn't contaminate herself and has this option. If one skater gets a chance to break out of there, I want it to be her.

Canada may be a long shot at this point sasha may have a better chance to move her training base to country closer to home like Estonia or Georgia where they have world class figures skaters. If Russian banks are still close down outside of Russian banks are still closed down in Europe for instance and and around the world then it will be impossible for Russian skaters to travel out of Russia that's why I say temporarily move to another country until the war is over and Russian banks are opened backup internationally.

Whatever happens I hope Sasha can find some inner peace and joy in these tough times.
 
Oh and I was thinking, if Sasha is set to perform in April for one an AoP show, what program will she do, will it be Romeo and Juliet again (🤞)? I can't imagine that Evgeni will let her skate a Danny G program at his show. If it is R&J maybe she we will be able to see it with 5 clean quads for the first time!!

On Tutberidze's show Sasha plans to skate the "Wonder Woman" and a shortened version of "Cruella" .
What she will roll on Plushenkos show is not yet clear.
I don't think she will roll a full competitive program. And I think 5 quads in a show program is out of the question.

Yeah you are probably right, but my delusional fan mind can hope... :biggrin::popcorn::hap10:

If someone has a special talent-like science, sports etc, the US will accept them. There is a long tradition in the US of fast tracking talented people -famous ballet dancers, rocket scientists, NHL players etc. The reality may well be that either they leave or finish their careers. It is going to be interesting to watch-not just Sasha, but the others as well (including coaches) who will jump ship? There is also the very real possibility that Russia will crack down on travel ala Soviet days. (Assuming you find a way to travel)

Are you talking about traveling or are you talking about sasha changing her citizenship under some emergency provision? I'm not sure she would switch her citizenship. I'm an American and I love my country but I've been ashamed of many things we have done in the world the last 20 years. Sasha can still love her country no matter what her leaders have done.

Many great Russian hockey players committed treasonous acts to escape the old Soviet Unionaemy to be free in the NHL. They became heroes later on when they return to Russia. I guess it's possible sasha could do that and it wouldn't be as bad as defecting lke the hockey players did.

I've seen some pictures and videos of Sasha smiling recently and it always makes our hearts feel good when she's showing happiness.
