MOSCOW (Sputnik) — On Monday, a WADA commission issued a report accusing Russia of numerous violations of global anti-doping codes and recommended that the country be banned from international athletics, including 2016 Olympic Games.
"The most capacious word with which I can describe this report is complete nonsense," Nikolay Durmanov told R-Sport, adding that a ban on participation in the Olympics on the basis of such accusations is inappropriate.
According to Durmanov, the arguments used in the report indicate that it was politically motivated.
Earlier on Tuesday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that doping accusations against Russian athletes were unfounded.
