Putin recalled Doping affairs Sharapova and Valieva and called for order to put things in medical support
Russian President Vladimir Putin, during a meeting of the Presidential Council for the Development of Physical Culture and Sports, said that the medical support of the highest achievements requires order and control by the state.
In January 2024, the sports arbitration court disqualified the skater Kamil Valiev for four years for violating anti -doping rules. In the athlete’s wire, trimetazidin was found. The skater appeal to the Federal Court of Switzerland, which was rejected. The termination of the 18 -year -old Russian woman is counted from December 25, 2021, her results are canceled from this date. Valieva is also deprived of the gold medals of the Olympic Games – 2022 in Beijing in the team tournament and gold of the European Championship – 2022.
The winner of the five large helmet tournaments, the former first racket of the world, Maria Sharapova in June 2016 was disqualified for two years for the use of Meldonia. The term was reduced to 15 months, the Russian woman returned to the court, but in February 2020 announced the end of her career.
– We have FMBA – this is a head medical organization that is engaged in medical support of sports, especially the sports of the highest achievements. At the same time, individual federations attract specialists to work with their athletes, to put it mildly, disputed areas in medicine. And even, so to speak, non -traditional medicine.
And then we, millions of spectators, sports lovers, fans are faced with a situation that is difficult, at first glance, to explain. So it was, in my opinion, with Maria Sharapova at one time, when she said: “The doctor gave a drug, and I did not know that it could not be used.” So it was, in my opinion, in figure skating, when Valiev was accused of using any drugs. She also knew nothing. Some kind of nonsense. We have a federal body in the field of medicine, which is involved professionally. Why attract shamans to some? Need to put things in order. Control should be from the state. This is not a private shop, ”said Putin.
