WADA worries about the safety of former head of the Moscow Anti-Doping Laboratory Grigory Rodchenkov, as well as other informants. Deputy Director General of the organization Rob Kohler demanded from Russia to stop the attacks and take protection of informers. He told about this during the discussion of the issue of restoring RUSAD in Lausanne. Koehler stressed that the Russian Anti-Doping Agency has eliminated many violations, but for "forgiveness" it is necessary to do even more work and continue to cooperate. At the same time, WADA, according to him, is seriously concerned about threats from Russia to informants, the website "Championship. com ". "The government of Russia must commit itself to protecting informants," says Rob. In his opinion, Moscow should also recognize McLaren's report, which refers to the existing system of state support for doping.

Despite accusations of athletes in the use of banned substances, the Slovak biathlete Martin Otchenash supported our country. "All talk about doping problems are only about Russia. It's not fair. It would be correct to talk about all countries where there are problems with doping, "Sport24 quoted him. Slovak believes that boycotting the biathlon World Cup in Tyumen is wrong, so politics should not be confused with sports.

Rodchenkov became informant WADA, which investigates the use of doping in Russian sports. His testimony led to the removal of the Russian national team from the Games-2018 in Pyeongchang. Allowed athletes of the country were allowed to act only under the neutral flag. At the same time, the international organization began to develop a network of informers around the world to combat "dirty" athletes. Russia more than once rejected accusations of creating a doping system. At home against Grigory Rodchenkov criminal cases are opened.
