At the same time, according to him, the assistants of the former head of the Moscow anti-doping laboratory Grigory Rodchenkov approached athletes with relevant proposals.
“Rodchenkov — especially in recent years — had a program. He told everyone that the state. And his people - and he had a lot of sixes - were distributing something to the athletes. They told them: “It’s your business to run and jump, and we will answer,” Sport-Express quotes Zagorulko as saying.
The specialist also added that most often athletes refused to use doping.
Earlier it was reported that the Governor of Tokyo spoke out on the safety of the future Summer Olympics.
