Athletistic/ Figure Skating. In January, Finland hosted the European Figure Skating Championships. Transgender figure skater Minna Maria Antikainen took part in the opening ceremony of the continent’s strongest ice masters forum.
The appearance on the ice of the 59-year-old figure skater was commented on by Yana Rudkovskaya, the wife of two-time Olympic champion Evgeni Plushenko.
“I want to have mercy on her, yes, but, on the other hand, championship ice knows no mercy, my dear,” the producer pointed out.
“It’s not a criticism, it’s a shock! But what, it was impossible to train a 59-year-old man well so that the level was really shown? Let it be amateur, but not shameful? I invite so the respected Minna Maria Antikainen at our academy, in the middle of spring she will start skating at the level at which you can perform at such events,” Rudkovskaya promised, posting a corresponding message on social networks.
