As is clear from the description of the incident, Anna Linnikova intended to stand during the group photo in the center, where Apanasenko was already. However, the Ukrainian woman clung to another girl in order not to let Linnikova into this place, and the Russian woman got up through a participant.
After Apanasenko asked Miss Columbia, standing on the other side, to switch places with her, she further distanced herself from her competitor from Russia.
Miss Russia 2022 Anna Linnikova reached the semifinals of the Miss Universe pageant on January 12, showing off, among other things, a national costume called the Crown of the Russian Empire.
