Ukrainian basketball-player Oleg Tereschenko has moved from Zhitomir (north-west of Ukraine) to Russia to avoid mobilization.
He fled to Russia together with other Ukrainian refugees. They were placed in temporary shelter in Uglich (the Yaroslavl Region). As Oleg used to play in Ukrainian “VolynBasket” club, he was offered a job as a basketball coach in one of the local sports schools. Oleg admits that he has never supported the military policy of Kiev and he doesn’t want to fight against his countrymen.
“My friends support Russia, not Ukraine. There were fights because of it. Once we were even shot at. The police are always on the side of the majority,” – he told the journalists.
Now Oleg Tereshchenko lives in Yaroslavl (100 km from Uglich), but he regularly goes to Uglich to coach his pupils. Young basketball players are very delighted. According to them, their team plays better now.
In his free time, Oleg earns money as a waiter and fitness instructor. Oleg doesn’t want to come back to Ukraine and he wants to bring his parents to Russia as soon as he has an opportunity.
“Oleg is a nice and ambitious guy who has plans for the future. If he continues to work as a coach, there is much work ahead, of course. We wish him all the best so that we would be proud of his achievements and success,” – the director of the school Andrey Rzhev said.
