Pressure for political views[]

She also joined  [be](BSSF) and voiced support to all the sportsmen who suffered the crackdown for their political views.[6]

On October 6, 2020, her coach was notified that Ramanouskaya had been fired from the national team for the official reason of truancy.[7] In November 2020 she sold her gold medal and donated the money to the BSSF.[8]

The authorities didn't give any information about reasons of the arrest, the police spokesman only disclosed that she was facing administrative charges.
