Expert: Russia Banned from Olympics and Global Sports for 4 Years Over Doping
Global antidoping leaders agreed unanimously on Monday to banish Russia from international sports 鈥� including next summer鈥檚 Olympic Games in Tokyo 鈥� for four years, the latest and severest punishment yet connected to a years long cheating scheme that has tarnished global sport. ()
Here is an expert from 成人VR视频 that can provide comment on this issue:

鈥�A 4-year ban on Russia is a reasonable sanction that addresses the doping problem on the level that it occurred (state-level rather than individual-level). The 4-year ban imposes consequences for people who have been active in facilitating doping activities but still sends a message to athletes that if they commit to clean sport there is a path for them to international competition.鈥�
