Russia started to reply. The main points:
1. Some of accusations are true but outdated as refer to the past. There were cases of doping use in Russian athletics. That's why measures were taken. Like Russia's fed voluntary banning of some athletes. - I can believe that. It was the case and Russia had only 5 medals in the last WC vs. 17 in the previous one.
2. Some of the accusations are unfounded allegations made without any proof. All these allegations will be answered one by one within a short time.
3. Russia is against doping. There is a proposal to make the use of doping by professional athletes a felony crime with jail sentences. The decision on that will be made soon.
