Alina Kabaeva: The rising power in Russian sports amid Putin's controversy

^{Published on 2025-01-25 11:25:27 - MSN}

Alina Kabaeva, the alleged partner of Vladimir Putin, has gained influence in Russian sports in recent years. According to reports by "BBC News", her actions have sparked controversy due to the granting of special rights.

Alina Kabaeva, a former Olympic rhythmic gymnast, has emerged as a significant figure in Russian sports governance amidst the backdrop of President Vladimir Putin's controversial tenure. Known for her athletic prowess, Kabaeva has transitioned into a role that places her at the heart of Russian sports administration, particularly noted for her involvement with the National Media Group (NMG), where she holds a senior position. Her rise coincides with a period of intense scrutiny over Putin's leadership, especially following the invasion of Ukraine, which has led to international sanctions and a reevaluation of Russia's role in global sports. Despite the controversies surrounding Putin, Kabaeva's influence in sports continues to grow, leveraging her past achievements and her close, albeit officially unconfirmed, relationship with Putin. This connection has not only elevated her status but also positioned her as a potential power broker in Russian sports, navigating through the complexities of international sports politics and the ongoing geopolitical tensions.
