According to her, giving the title for winning commercial battles without rules is not very correct.
“Khabib is an outstanding athlete, but we have a lot of them,” she said in an interview with NSN.
Zhurova added that she is respectful of Nurmagomedov, but did not hear that he was in favor of Russia.
“Dagestan – yes, Islam – yes. It seems to me that the Order of Friendship would be especially right to give him against the background of the situation with Muslims, which is taking place in the world, ”the deputy concluded.
As reported by IA REGNUM, the initiative to award the title of Hero of Russia to Khabib Nurmagomedov was made by the State Duma deputy from Dagestan Gadzhimurad Omarov. According to him, “guys like Khabib are worthy role models for the younger generation.”
However, this proposal met with a wave of criticism. So, the world boxing champion Kostya Tszyu, the famous Olympic champion, State Duma deputy Irina Rodnina (United Russia), sports commentator Dmitry Guberniev, State Duma deputy Vitaly Milonov (United Russia) were against.
