As specified, the organizers of the tournament in the Finnish city of Espoo had the task of showing the equality and diversity of people. Russian athletes were not invited to the championship, but for the first time they showed a transgender figure skater.
Minna-Maria Antikainen used to be a man named Markku-Pekka. He decided to reveal his secret to the world at the age of 43, and at the age of 50 she decided to start figure skating.
