Vladimir SAMSONOV is in Montenegro with his family. There is more strict quarantine and you cannot leave the house without the need.

“I think this measure can be understood. We all should pay even more attention to the non-proliferation of the virus and naturally take care of our families and follow the advice of doctors. Now I do not have the opportunity to train outside the home. So I’m mainly engaged in physical training”.

Despite the suspension of the Olympic Games to the summer of 2021 SAMSONOV expects to reach the seventh Games in his career. And despite the fact that time does not work for him emphasizes:

“ I’m already interested not just to plunge into the Olympic atmosphere; I don’t want to be a tourist at the Olympics. If I get there I simply must do everything in order to fight for the medal”.

Vladimir did not remain indifferent during the period of the threat of the coronavirus epidemic in Belarus. Samsonov transferred 10 thousand Euros to the charity account of the medical response organization center.
