Beijing Olympic champion in the team figure skating tournament Kamila Valieva said that she was satisfied with the decision of the RUSADA disciplinary anti-doping committee, which did not find her fault or negligence in a positive doping test. Valieva’s words are quoted TASS.
Like January 13th reported The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), the RUSADA committee found that Valieva violated anti-doping rules, but did not find guilt or negligence in her actions and deprived the skater only of victory at the Russian Championship, where she passed a positive doping test for trimetazidine in December 2021.
“Of course I’m satisfied. Russian Championship every year,” Valieva told reporters.
WADA and the International Skating Union (ISU) declaredthat they will study the decision of RUSADA and may challenge it in the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).
WADA at the end of November due to the lack of a decision from RUSADA did case in CAS and demanded that Valieva be suspended for four years.
