POLL: What do you think about the appointment of Pavel Kolobkov as the Minister of Sports of Russia?

rejoice, Russian sport. You have a new minister, and you, apparently, have been waiting for this for a very long time. At least the old minister - Vitaly Leontyevich Mutko - is completely tired of you. Although he is old, he is like Carlson - in full bloom. The retired minister will now need strength to work in a position where no man has ever set foot - Deputy Prime Minister for Sports, but now it’s not about him, but about his deputy who has rushed up the career ladder - Pavel Kolobkov. The new sports minister Olympic champion in fencing, climbing the podium at five Olympics in three different teams. And also - the first active athlete in the rank of colonel.

"I'm not afraid of injections, if necessary, I'll inject" - this is from Sergei Mikhalkov, a children's poem about vaccination. Ukolov Pavel Anatolyevich is not afraid - a fact. I would have been afraid - I would not have won the Olympics. Prokolov, apparently, too, but more on that below.

Great sportsman

great athlete. There is nothing to argue about. He participated in five Olympics and won awards in the composition of three teams - the USSR, the CIS and Russia. On his account, bronze in the team épée in 1988 in Seoul, bronze in the same type of program and silver in the personal épée in 1992 in Barcelona, ​​silver in the team in 1996 in Atlanta, bronze in the individual tournament in 2004 in Athens.

The only thing Olympic gold he won in 2000 in Sydney in an individual tournament. It was then when it was not that no one expected victory from him, but he was not such an unconditional favorite as four years before. During the flight to Australia, Kolobkov said that if he pulled out a jack card from a deck, he would definitely win gold. He pulled out the right card.

If we add more world championships, in which Kolobkov won six gold, two silver and four bronze medals, one can understand at what level the great swordsman fenced. He could compete for awards at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, but did not get there, relying on the "wild card" from the International Fencing Federation. But he never received a special invitation, and in the selection he lacked only five points.

real colonel

Kolobkov completed sports career colonel. None of the active athletes of this high military rank was awarded to him before. In 2010, the Minister of Sports, Tourism and Youth Policy of Russia invited Pavel Kolobkov to his department. He was appointed to supervise Paralympic and Deaflympics sports, to develop summer views sports and ensure the preparation of the national team for the 2012 Games in London.

By the way, he went to the capital of Great Britain as the head of the Russian delegation, and at the end of the Olympics he received a diploma from the president of the country. Usually, practically nothing is known about the work of deputy ministers; all awards and bumps are collected by their bosses. But not in the case of Vitaly Mutko. One of his deputies, Yuri Nagornykh, was sacrificed after numerous doping scandals.

Kolobkov ended his sports career as a colonel. None of the active athletes of this high military rank was awarded to him before.

On the contrary, he got a promotion.

Silence is a position

Could the meldonium nightmare have been prevented? Probably, only Kolobkov, as a member of the board of founders of WADA from Russia, did nothing to ensure that this drug was not only not on the banned list, but even on the testing list. At that meeting of the WADA leadership, where . However, he did not have much leverage to influence the opinions of others. And the ability and ability to use levers is an integral part of the work of a great official.

As the person responsible for Paralympic sports, Kolobkov made our team the strongest in 2014, and in 2016 he could not help her go to Rio de Janeiro. Although in this case, it is unlikely that something strongly depended on Pavel Anatolyevich.

In any case, now the position of Minister of Sports is a legendary athlete, who, moreover, knows everything thoroughly. And now it is he who will get all the cones, as well as tops and roots.

The main thing is that everything does not end, as in that very poem by Mikhalkov. “Why did I stand against the wall? My knees are shaking…”
