DIF is agree tough sanctions against Russia

An exclusion of Russia in the four years from all the major sporting events are appropriate, after it has emerged that they have been tampered with Russian dopingprøveresultater.

It takes the Danish sports confederation (DIF), according to a panel under the Wada has recommended a number of historic sanctions against Russia's anti-doping agency (Rusada), including the exclusion of four years.

In January, was the Wada given the data from a laboratory in Moscow, but in september it emerged that the russians had tampered with these data.

9. december Wadas board of directors at a meeting in Paris to decide on the setting on the severity of the penalties must be followed. In that case Russia among other things, to be excluded from the OLYMPICS in 2020 and 2022, and the country must not hold major sporting events.

Doping is undermining the sport's credibility and fascinationskraft. Therefore, it should also have extraordinary hard consequences, when there are being cheated and manipulated in a magnitude, as we have seen in this case, says Morten Mølholm.

the Head of Russia's anti-doping agency, Yuri Ganus, expect that Wada will exclude Russia for four years, he said Tuesday to AFP.
