Russia could make an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) against its suspension from track and field by the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), Russian Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko said on Saturday.

IAAF Provisionally Suspends Russia From Track And Field
MOSCOW (Sputnik) On Monday, an independent investigative commission, set up by World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), presented a report accusing Russia of numerous violations of global anti-doping codes and recommended the IAAF suspend Russia from international athletics, including the 2016 Olympics. On Friday, Russia was provisionally suspended from track and field.
