Controversy with Lasitskene

[edit]

After the final event at the 2020 Summer Olympics Yaroslava congratulated Russian high jumper and Olympic champion Mariya Lasitskene for her win and hugged her.[87] It caused a controversy among Ukrainians because Lasitskene was a senior lieutenant of the Russian Armed Forces and Mahuchikh shouldn't communicate with Russian Army representatives during the Russo-Ukrainian War.[88] Ukrainian karateka Stanislav Horuna, who won bronze in the men's under 75 kg kumite karate category, took to Facebook to express his support for Mahuchikh.[89] Mahuchikh herself explained that the photo with Lasitskene had no political intent.[87]

In September 2021, after the Diamond League Final, there was a new controversy because of another picture with Lasitskene, who had won the Diamond League Final.[90] This photo was published by Australian high jumper Nicola Olyslagers in Instagram.[91]

After the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Mahuchikh said that she regretted the photo with Lasitskene during the 2020 Summer Olympics and that Lasitskene wasn't her idol anymore.[92]

Later, Ukrainian influencer and blogger Ihor Lachenkov in Telegram announced Yaroslava's donation of 1 million hryvnas to vehicles for combat units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the front line.[96]

In October 2024, Mahuchikh told Tribuna, a Ukrainian sports publishing house, in an interview that she donated her 2024 Paris Olympics competition bib to the "Heroes Cup" charity auction which sold the bib for 300,000 hryvnias (UAH) to help with military rebuilding effort.[97] Later that month, Mahuchikh became an ambassador of the Ukrainian National project "Vriatyi Kintsivky" (Save Limb), dedicated to the rehabilitation of Ukrainian Armed Forces troops.[98]
