Russia appeals to CAS WADA decision

This, according to TASS, said the first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on Foreign Affairs Svetlana Zhurova.

“On the 19th there will be a meeting of the RUSADA Supervisory Board, where, respectively, further RUSADA either accepts these recommendations or does not accept them,” she said.

As the parliamentarian noted, after that "there is already a court in Lausanne."

“100% (Russia will go to court. - RT), because ... we must fight for the athletes,” she stressed.

Earlier it became known that the WADA executive committee decided to deprive Russia of the right to participate in major international competitions for fraud with data from the Moscow laboratory.

Sanctions also include a ban on holding World Championships, Europe and the Olympic Games in the country.
