Speaking in Moscow on Tuesday, Russian Minister of Sports Vitali Mutko commented on the World Anti-Doping Agency's report which alleges to have uncovered state-sponsored doping programmes for Russian athletes at the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics. He slammed WADA, saying that it became a "punitive organisation" and it "places itself above the movement: it dictates the rules, it extends the lists and includes an endless amount of medication into the lists, it doesn't care about athletes, about their health".
Professor Richard McLaren presented the findings of his World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) commissioned report into allegations of Russian state sponsored doping at a conference in Toronto on Monday.
