Anti-doping agencies call on IOC to ban Russia from 2018 Winter Olympics

[Litwin]

great news, is it any chance for the Kremlin thugs to show up in Pyeongchang ?

"The world’s leading anti-doping agencies have come together to demand Russia be banned from the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang next year and to warn the International Olympic Committee it must stop paying lip service to the fight against doping.

In strongly worded comments after a meeting in Colorado between 17 anti‑doping agencies, which included the US Anti-Doping Agency and UK Anti‑Doping, the organisations also warned the IOC that its continuing reluctance to hold Russia to account for what it called “one of the biggest scandals in sports history” at the Sochi Winter Games in 2014 threatens the future of the Olympic movement."Anti-doping agencies call on IOC to ban Russia from 2018 Winter Olympics

They just cleared 95 athletes. What the fuck is this about? Tell me this isn't a snowflake hit job.

95 athletes out of the first 96 cleared. This is bullshit. They only found one guilty athlete.

"The World Anti-Doping Agency, the regulator of drugs in sports that produced mountainous evidence of Russia’s doping scheme, has agreed to clear 95 of the first 96 athletes whose cases have been reviewed, according to an internal report circulated among the organization’s executives in recent days."

NYT: World Anti-Doping Agency Clears 95 Russian Athletes
The World Anti-Doping Agency, the regulator of drugs in sports that produced mountainous evidence of Russia’s doping scheme, has agreed to clear 95 of the first 96 athletes whose cases have been reviewed, according to an internal report circulated among the organization’s executives in recent days.

“The available evidence was insufficient to support the assertion of an antidoping rule violation against these 95 athletes,” Olivier Niggli, the agency’s director general, wrote in the internal report, which was obtained by The New York Times. The report does not identify any of the 96 athletes.

That means that 95 Russian athletes were banned from participation Rio Olympics without any reason! And the ones who were banned, were the strongest athletes in Russian team and were supposed to win plenty of medals. Russian team just has been brutally robbed.

Liwin-enko, stop littering Internet with your Ukrainian BS. Even the majority Ukrainians don't buy it.
