The Norwegian Ski Association has been clear that no Russian skiers are welcome to the World Cup competitions in Drammen and Holmenkollen.

"The Norwegian Ski Federation's message to Russia and Russian athletes is crystal clear: We do not want their participation," it was written in a press release at the end of last week.

But despite Norway's clear position, Fis lets the Russian riders line up in the competitions.

Fis' message arouses anger in the Norwegian camp.
