The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) plans to appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in Lausanne after the Russian Anti-Doping Agency (RUSADA) sent a notice of disagreement regarding the organisation’s reinstatement criteria. This was reported by “Match TV”.
On September 22, 2023, WADA announced that RUSADA continued to fail to comply with the World Anti-Doping Code. Additionally, WADA punished 218 Russian athletes based on data obtained from the Moscow laboratory.
WADA has previously stated that RUSADA’s status continues to be non-compliant with the World Anti-Doping Code. The Russian organization will have this status until it meets all conditions for restoration. Let us recall that in December 2019, the WADA Executive Committee in Lausanne unanimously accepted the recommendations of the compliance committee and removed RUSADA from its status.
On September 21, the Russian Ministry of Sports announced that it refused to pay contributions to WADA under the same conditions.
Previously in RUSADA reported WADA disagrees with the idea of being deprived of compliance status.
