German journalist Seppelt said that Russia should not participate in the selection for the Olympics-2024
German journalist Hajo Seppelt, who specializes in exposing Russian doping, spoke about the admission of Russians to international competitions. His words are quoted by Sportschau.
“Russia believes that its actions will have no consequences because sports officials, such as the head of the International Olympic Committee, Thomas Bach, are acting inconsistently. It is necessary to bring under control not only the illegal actions of Russia, but also the irresponsible leadership style of Bach, ”said Seppelt. In his opinion, Russia should not participate in the competition for the selection of athletes for the 2024 Olympic Games.
On December 12, the head of the United States Olympic Committee (USOPC), Suzanne Lyons, said that the exclusion of Russians is throwing the Olympic movement back. At the same time, she noted that the Russians should not perform under the national flag.
Seppelt specializes in investigating the use of illegal drugs by athletes in different countries. From 2014 to 2016, his films about doping in Russia were released on ARD.
