WADA votes to lift Russia ban

The World Anti-Doping Agency has voted, subject to certain conditions, to lift the ban on Russia’s anti-doping authority (RUSADA), which was suspended in 2015 following allegations of widespread state-sponsored doping. The suspension could be reintroduced if this did not happen within “a clear timeline,” it added.

“Today, the great majority of the WADA Executive Committee decided to reinstate RUSADA as compliant with the World Anti-Doping Code, subject to strict conditions,” WADA President Craig Reedie said following a meeting yesterday in the Seychelles.
