Vote fixing allegations

On 8 February, French sports newspaper L'Équipe, quoting an anonymous Russian coach, alleged that Russia and the United States would swap votes, with the U.S. voting for Russian athletes in pairs figure skating and team events and Russia voting for the U.S. in ice dance.[8][9] The allegations were categorically denied by U.S. Figure Skating.[10]
