Russia's Olympic President eager for IAAF announcement

Thursday, July 21 2016 by SNTV
  • Russian Olympic Committee president Alexander Zhukov said he expects the decision over the country's participation in the Rio Olympics to be made by Sunday (24th July).

    "You follow the developments that have been taking place recently. In these circumstances the final line-up of our athletes is being created and despite the fact that the Games start in two weeks, a number of questions are still open. I think that yesterday you also followed the CAS (Court of Arbitration for Sport) session in Geneva that considered the claim of the Russian Olympic Committee and our 68 track and field athletes against the IAAF (International Association of Athletics Federations). The hearing took place yesterday in Geneva, the decision will be probably announced tomorrow. It will depend on this decision whether our track and field athletes can participate in the Olympics."
