“In any case, you need to appeal, but I'm not sure that we have arguments. It is necessary to open documents, there is a prescribed system of disqualification, you need to read what rights athletes have. We remember how, even starting with Rio, they tried to treat collectively and individually - someone succeeded, someone did not. I hope that there may be concessions for Russian athletes, ”said Fetisov RT.

The WADA Executive Committee unanimously decided to remove Russia from participating in international competitions for four years in connection with a fraud with the database of the Moscow anti-doping laboratory.

Earlier, Fetisov expressed the opinion that the removal of Russian sports is not related to politics.
