Grigory Rodchenkov not only skilfully composed about doping, but also professionally wrote erotic stories. Such a loud statement was made by Svetlana Zhurova, deputy head of the Duma's international affairs committee. His compositions, as the sportsman asserts, he passed on to the familiar doctors. "He is, of course, very strange. As far as I know, he wrote erotic stories and sent them to familiar doctors. There they say it was ... ", - quotes her Sports. en. In addition to piquant details, Zhurova reported that Rodchenkov constantly pressed on athletes and offered dope. According to the Olympic champion, he was a "spy" WADA and did not hide the fact that he worked with them very closely. "Rodchenkov has always been one of the negotiators with WADA - and always stressed it: guys, I'm with them on a short leg, I will decide the contentious issues. In fact, he is their employee, "- said Svetlana. The former head of the Moscow anti-doping laboratory was also told by the chairman of the government Dmitry Medvedev. In his opinion, Rodchenkov has serious problems with the psyche and needs all-round assistance, RIA Novosti reports.. "It is enough to look at these diaries to understand that this citizen needs, first of all, psychiatric help, and not some other. But this we will leave aside, "- concluded Dmitry Medvedev. His response about the whole situation was given by Richard McLaren himself in an interview with "Sport-Express". Collective sanctions, he believes, should be applied to Russian athletes for prevention, but which ones to clarify the Canadian lawyer did not. About personal opinion and a possible solution, McClaren preferred to keep silent, writing off everything on the IOC commission. It is she who must decide the fate of our team on December 5.

Speaking about the published diaries of Rodchenkov, McLaren stressed that he knew about them, but did not see what was written in full, and during the conversation the former head of the Moscow laboratory constantly checked the pages. "But we believed that having a living witness, it is more important to communicate with him directly. The diaries were secondary, "added Richard.
