Dear WorldofVolley,

After articles published in the media, even on your site about my appearances for the team of Russia I would like to inform you the following: on Oct 28th I received permission from the FIVB to change the federation. Immediately most of the media announced that I got permission to compete for the Russian team but the truth is that I got the license to play as a domestic player in the Russian championship, not to compete for the Russian national team.
Before my transfer the Federation of Cuba defined the condition for issuing approval for the change of the federation. In the other hand FIVB rules say that the player, after the change of the federation, must have a break of two years, which means that I could play for Russia only after Oct 28th 2016.
I am sorry that this was even mentioned and that some media published an interview with me because nobody contacted me neither I gave any statements. Russia is my second home, but after Cuba I will never play for another team.
Also, I am sorry because coach of Russia was involved into this story because it is obvious that he was not familiar with the terms of my transition, as well as the rules that prohibits my playing for Russian team. I believe in my quality as much as I will be never afraid of competition. Not even with the best players of Russia that are mentioned in published articles. Anuway, I wish the Russian team all the best in future competitions,

Sincerely,  

Rosir
