Tatiana Alexeyevna Minina (Russian: Татьяна Алексеевна Минина, IPA: [tɐˈtʲjanə ˈmʲinʲɪnə]; née Kudashova; born 18 April 1997) is a Russian taekwondo athlete. She won the silver medal at the 2017 World Taekwondo Championships in the women's bantamweight category[1][2][3] when she was beaten by Zeliha Ağrıs from Turkey.[4]

She is a three-time European champion, winning the gold medal at the 2016, the 2018 and the 2021 European Taekwondo Championships, all in the –53 kg weight category.[5][6]

She won one of the bronze medals in the women's bantamweight event at the 2023 World Taekwondo Championships held in Baku, Azerbaijan.[7] After the championships, World Taekwondo was to investigate the claim that competing Russian athletes, including Minina, violated the principles of neutrality because they had liked multiple pro-war posts on socia media.[8] In August 2023, Minina also readily accepted awards from the Governor of Chelyabinsk Oblast Aleksey Teksler who is sanctioned by the US and UK for backing Russian invasion of Ukraine.[9] In 2021, Minina had thanked Sergei Shoigu for a medal of Ministry of Defence and posted pictures with him in her social media.[10]
