It is noted that already approved start-ups in Russia will not be canceled.
Such rules will remain in effect until RUSADA is reinstated, no new applications from Russia for international competitions submitted to international federations that sign the WADA code will not even be considered.
So, with those tournaments with which contracts are signed nothing will be. Already after the expiration of their term, Russia will not have any world and European championships, no stages of auto- and motorcycle racing, including Formula-1, no stages of the World Cups for any sport, chess Olympiads, Universiades and World War Games.
However, competitions held by organizations that do not sign the WADA code do not fall under this prohibition. In this case, football European Cups and matches of the newly created League of Nations are not under threat, the newspaper notes..
As previously reported in "URA-Inform", another Russian athlete was caught in doping at the Olympic Games in South Korea. The doping test of Russian bobsledder Nadezhda Sergeeva gave a positive result.
