Pavel Astakhov, Khimki Moscow Region GM:

“Khimki were ready for any decision of the EuroLeague, but only clubs with an A license could take part in the voting. The choice to end the season seems logical, because despite the general desire to return to normal life as soon as possible, the health and safety of all participants are a priority. Now we have to analyze the current situation and start preparing for the next season”.
