Kuznetsova holds pro-life views. She has stated her support for fringe views such as telegony, which led the founding editor of the business newspaper Vedomosti[5] to interpret her appointment as a sign that Russian President Vladimir Putin was becoming more ideological.[6]

In November of 2018, her mention about female genital mutilation caused a public outcry.[7][8]
