WADA announced RUSADA’s non-compliance with the World Anti-Doping Code
The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has made a new statement regarding the Russian Anti-Doping Agency’s (RUSADA) compliance with reinstatement conditions. This is reported on the organization’s website.
WADA emphasized that RUSADA still does not comply with the World Anti-Doping Code. It is noted that the Russian side can appeal this within 21 days from the date of receipt of the official notification.
Earlier, Russian Sports Minister Oleg Matytsin criticized WADA’s requirements for RUSADA. He called them direct interference in the legislative process.
In December 2019, the WADA Executive Committee decided to deprive Russia of the right to host the Olympic Games and World Championships, and Russian athletes of the flag and anthem for four years. The reason was the deprivation of RUSADA’s compliance status. In November 2022, WADA decided to extend the suspension of RUSADA.
