In her opinion, many girls went to the rallies to “hang out”. Openysheva noted that "democracy is good, but now it is not democracy." She also called on the younger generation to come to their senses.
After deleting the entry in Telegram, the official wrote on her Facebook page that youth taking to the streets is a lawlessness, not a democracy.
“About democracy - I meant that in a democratic state all subjects are obliged to comply with the law and young people should not participate in illegal actions,” she explained.
Openysheva became widely known after the scandal with the publication of a selfie from the "chocolate" bath. A photo in a medicinal naphthalan bath, which Openysheva called chocolate, she posted on her Instagram. The photo was taken while on vacation at the Garabag Resort in Azerbaijan.

At the moment, Openysheva is the head of the state corporation "Government for Citizens".
