Alexandra Pospelova

Russian tennis player Alexandra Pospelova is facing backlash after she liked social media posts supporting the recent Russian attack on Ukraine. In particular, she liked a post from Margarita Simonyan, the editor-in-chief of Russian state-funded media outlet RT, which has been accused of spreading propaganda.

Pospelova's actions have been criticized by many, with some calling for her to be held accountable for promoting a political agenda.
