Oleg Vasiliev is head coach of the national team of Belarus. The Olympic champion in pair skating believes the level of figure skating has grown too sharply in recent years.

According to him, already at the children's level, many need tackles in order to succeed in the future. He also explained why he would not work with the pair of Alyona Kostornaya - Georgy Kunitsa, and commented on the transfer of Alexandra Boykova and Dmitry Kozlovsky to the group of Eteri Tutberidze.
