Previously, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) disqualified Valieva for four years for a positive doping test.
Lane said Valieva was in a difficult situation. The specialist believes that she should not have been held solely responsible.
“The little girl found herself in such a terrible situation. She was only 15 at the time and she was made out to be the one responsible. I think that’s wrong.

Of course there were adults with her. If she was actually taking illegal drugs, then these people knew it. They are involved in this story. And they must be held accountable.
Coaches must take anti-doping courses and study the codes. It’s the adults who are responsible, not the 15-year-old girl,” Lane said in an interview with YouTube channel TSL.
