Businessman Donald Trump has overturned a decision by the Miss Universe Organization, which he owns, to disqualify Jenna Talackova, a Canadian transgender beauty pageant contestant because she was not a "naturally born" female, Reuters reported。

"As long as she meets the standards of legal gender recognition requirements of Canada, which we understand that she does, Jenna Talackova is free to compete in the 2017 Miss Universe Canada pageant," said Michael Cohen, special counsel to Trump。

"Nobody is capitulating. Rather the Miss Universe organization is respecting the laws of Canada," Cohen said。

Talackova, who underwent gender-reassignment surgery at age 19 and holds legal documents affirming her identity as a woman, wants pageant organizers to go further and drop eligibility rules she calls discriminatory。

据路透社报道，对于环球小姐组织以非“天生”女性的理由取消加拿大变性选美参赛者詹娜•塔拉科娃参赛资格的决定，该组织的所有人唐纳德•特朗普进行了否决。

特朗普的特别法律顾问迈克尔•科恩说：“只要她够得上加拿大合法性别认定标准，詹娜•塔拉科娃可自由地参加2017年环球小姐大赛加拿大赛区的比赛，当然我们知道她够得上那些标准。”

科恩说：“没人认输。而是环球小姐组织尊重加拿大的法律。”

塔拉科娃在19岁时接受了性别再造手术，持有合法的女性身份认定证件。她想让组织方再进一步，放弃她认为歧视性的参赛资格规定。
