Athletistic/ Others. The head of WADA, Witold Banka, emphasized that the claims against the Russian Anti-Doping Agency (RUSADA), which was deprived of its status, are exclusively geopolitical in nature.
“Due to the geopolitical situation, WADA cannot evaluate the work of RUSADA and come to the Russian Federation. I think they work well regarding technical issues and anti-doping controls. Deprivation of the status of RUSADA is rather political in nature.
However, I am not sure that they are completely independent from the state. Especially considering the geopolitical situation,” Banka said in the video of pranksters Vovan and Lexus.
