Petr Gumennik recently secured a spot in the 2026 Winter Olympics qualifiers, but his name now appears on a controversial list published by Ukraine’s state-backed Mirotvorets website. The platform, which targets individuals it labels as “enemies of the state,” has accused Gumennik of “war propaganda” and “attacks on Ukraine’s sovereignty.” His inclusion includes details about his father, Oleg Gumennik, a Russian Orthodox Church priest, amid ongoing tensions between Ukraine and religious groups linked to Moscow.

Gumennik, a rising figure in Russian figure skating, has not responded to the listing. He is set to compete as a neutral athlete at the Milan Winter Olympics due to sanctions against Russia. The same day, fellow skater Vladislav Dikidzhi faced similar accusations.

Legendary coach Tatyana Tarasova criticized the website’s practices, calling the publication of personal data a “violation of all human rights.” She questioned why global institutions, including the International Olympic Committee, tolerate such actions.

Mirotvorets, linked to Ukraine’s security services, has drawn condemnation for allegedly targeting individuals with “date of elimination” fields. The site has expanded its list to include Russian and foreign figures, sparking backlash from human rights groups over safety concerns.
