IOC extended sanctions against Russia

The International Olympic Committee decided to extend the sanctions imposed by the organization against Russia in July 2016. It is reported by AP .

On July 19, the IOC recommended that the international federations of winter sports look for places of competitions outside Russia.

This decision was related to the publication of the results of the investigation of the Commission of the World Anti -Doping Agency (WADA) under the leadership of Richard McLaren on the support of Russia to use doping at the state level during the Sochi Olympics.

Today, the IOC extended these sanctions "before the further notification."
