“WADA will carefully consider the decision of RUSADA in this case and reserves the right to appeal it to the Court of Arbitration for Sport, if appropriate,” the WADA representative was quoted as saying by TASS.
On October 21, RUSADA released a statement saying that all actions related to the case of the 16-year-old figure skater are confidential.
During the 2022 Olympics, it became known that Valieva's doping test on December 25, 2021 tested positive for trimetazidine.
Earlier, the head of USADA criticized RUSADA for the decision to classify Valieva's case.
