I'm hoping they can like each other enough to at least ski the Team Combined together because as a pair they would be the gold medal favorites. Wiles and Moltzan can be the second USA team.
Russian national team had 5 training groups that year.
Only one of these groups had a training camp at the occupied territories. This was a group of Nepryaeva.
Athletes could chose a group and switch between them.
I do not see any reason for her to avoid the resposibility (both from the sports perspective and legal point of view):
- adult;
- violated the rules of crossing the border;
- was not under the order;
- could switch training groups;
- there were alternative groups of the national tram to train with and not violate the rules;
- getting illegal advantage over other (Ukrainian) athletes;
- using stolen training facilities.
I wonder if there are more details to this, like whether or not she was part of some (national?) team, if she herself privately decided to go there, and so on.
Are there more details on this, other than just "she visited it"? As in, was that part of a certain team, was it a private decision to go there, and so on? Those may be important nuances, especially for young athletes.
