“The Ministry of Sports believes that the CAS decision objectively reflects the real situation in the Andrusenko-Kudashev case.

The All-Russian Swimming Federation and the athletes' advocates acted promptly and professionally.

In such situations, it is important to systematically interact with international federations and competent, active legal support.

The main thing is that the participation of our athletes at the Tokyo Olympics is ensured, I wish them health, good luck and victories, ”TASS quoted Matytsin as saying.

On July 14, Kudashev and Andrusenko, included in the Russian team to participate in the Summer Olympics in Tokyo, which will be held from July 23 to August 8, were temporarily suspended from any competition based on data from the Moscow Anti-Doping Laboratory (LIMS).

Earlier it became known that Andrusenko and Kudashev were acquitted of the doping case and admitted to the Games in Tokyo.
