Maria Nicolaeva is fighting for right to be judge
She worked as judge from Moldova for many years. She judged events as Grand Prix, European Championships, World Championships, and World Cups. In 2021, she became the superjury for Pesaro World Cup, an Olympic qualifier.
However, she is now being artificially restricted: she has been kicked out of federation, barred from taking judging exams, and her gymnasts have been barred from competing in international competitions.
Official reason was - lack of results and competence.
However, it was also officially determined that Maria had been subjected to discrimination (image). But this did not lead to any results.
At this point, she hopes to take exam only in 2029
