I will allow myself to publish here a comment by the user of Primorye from the local forum about how the news about Alina's absence from the Russian national team in China was perceived:
“The Chinese are studying with my daughter at the university under an exchange program from a large Chinese university, Tsinghua, so they said that in China, students made a collective petition to the Chinese Olympic Committee with a request for a personal quota for our Alina! 34000 people study at the university. So everything is ahead. Alina has a lot of personal fans in China, the news that she is not in the national team is a shock for them. So they adore our girl not only in Japan. did not work out. They really want her at the Olympic Games! "
And you know, it doesn't matter whether they will succeed (although they really want to), or not, one thing is important: Alina is loved, loved by ordinary people, the most ordinary, but all over the world. And this is very important. Because, as I already wrote in one of my posts: this it is very important for any person to know that someone needs you... When you know this, your wings appear and you want to move on. I wish our Alina more inspiration, desire to create, to move only forward, to the delight of ourselves and us!
And I wish Alina's fans more strength and less nerves. A strong fan base is one of the keys to Alina's success, do not forget about it, friends! We still have a lot of things to do))
