Thank You, Trankov Family: A Spotlight on Family Values in Sports

In the podcast «Checkmate» by Championat, **Andrey Zhyrankov** expressed his admiration for Olympic champions **Tatiana Volosozhar** and **Maxim Trankov** regarding their performance at a show program event.

“I want to extend my gratitude to the Trankov family. What they have accomplished is incredibly important for our country. We can talk endlessly about family values and the moral and ethical upbringing we aspire to. Sadly, our media, with a few exceptions, largely fail to promote ideas about family values, large families, and the significance of unity within a family.

These ideals are merely declared, yet it is precisely these principles that will preserve us as a nation and a people. However, they remain underrepresented. This is a wonderful example. The couple came together 15 years ago, got married five years later, and now they have welcomed their third child. Tatiana is an amazing mother to three kids, which is no easy feat! Hats off to the entire family! This was truly needed and is beneficial for our country,” Zhyrankov stated.
