“We all expect a fair verdict on this issue.

The proposals on sanctions that the WADA Executive Committee made in December last year and which directly related, among other things, to the ROC and the Russian Olympic team, we still consider unfair, inadequate and far from the existing reality.

We have consistently expressed our position during the hearings.

I believe that the lawyers have done a good, high-quality job.

Let me remind you that the ROC was a third interested party, and we expressed all our thoughts on this matter.

Evidence-based.

I hope that reason and justice will prevail, ”RIA Novosti quotes Pozdnyakov.

He noted that for the ROC, the most important moment in the upcoming decision is the possible sanctions that could affect the activities of the organization and negatively affect the participation of Russian athletes in the upcoming Olympic Games.

“Because a number of fundamental documents (and not only sports ones), from our point of view, were violated by WADA in the proposed sanctions.

This is what we focused on during the hearings, ”added the head of the ROC.

The Russian side has filed an appeal against the WADA verdict in CAS.

The hearings were held from 5 to 7 November.

The CAS must issue a verdict on this case by the end of the calendar year.

Earlier, the American media told how the Russian athletes behaved at the hearings at the CAS.
