Maria Konovalova was winner of the prestigious Chicago Marathon. Other Athletes are not meaningful titles. If there were disqualified before the world champions and Olympic Games, and on a massive scale, this news could not ignore. Russian Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko said that the incident – a consequence of the policy of the last decades, when, as he put it – much was unclear. In an interview with Interfax, he said that it is necessary to go through and sort things through.
The work is – finished Mutko. Former President Valentin Balakhnichev VFLA campaign said the incident, and politically motivated, claiming that a Russian athletes are discriminated against and applied to the most painful blows on the most important industry for the state, such as oil, gas and Sports. The fight against doping in his opinion is not shared and targeted.
