While I'm an athlete and while I'm fighting actively, I don't intend to pursue a career in politics. What happens after that, we'll see. But I don't have an intention to do both at the same time.

I've already fought my share. God gave me a rich, eventful career, and I thank God for everything, but I'm done fighting.

For every athlete, it is very important to be able to engage in their favorite thing, give all the best in training, performing in competitions, defending the honor of the motherland.

I gain strength out of familiar surroundings.
