2. Russia’s Minister of Sport Vitaly Mutko has acknowledged
“serious mistakes have been made” by the sports
federation management, athletes, and coaches of Russia.
Mutko said we are very sorry that athletes, who tried to
deceive us and the world, were not caught sooner. The
Russian sport minister added we are very sorry because
Russia is committed to upholding the highest standards in
sport and is opposed to anything that threatens the
Olympic values. However, Mutko did not admit that the
government of Russia had any role in helping athletes
dope.
3. Grigory Rodchenkov, the former director of the Moscow lab, recently
described a sophisticated doping scheme in which special agents of the
Federal Security Service, the equivalent of FBI, assisted athletes and officials
to prevent cheating athletes getting caught. Rodchenkov said FSS officers
allegedly worked during the Olympics disguised as doping control officers.
Rodchenkov said he provided a cocktail of anabolic steroids to athletes that
would help them recover more quickly.
The world governing body of athletics, the IAAF, suspended Russia, a track
and field powerhouse, following a WADA panel report that found state-
sponsored cheating.
In a statement on May 10, the World Anti-Doping Agency said it will
immediately probe the new Russian doping allegations, related to the 2014
Sochi Olympic Games. WADA said the taped conversations between former
RUSADA employee Stepanov and the ex-chief of the Moscow anti-doping
center, Grigory Rodchenkov, is a serious issue. WADA must immediately
begin to probe the accusations made in the documentary on doping in
Russian sports that was aired on May 8 by CBS, said WADA president Craig
Reedie.
