"Russia’s many doping & obstruction sins will now get some of the punishment they richly deserve. For far too long, Russia has weaponised doping fraud & state-sponsored criminal activity as a tool of foreign policy"- Jim Walden, lawyer for doping whistleblower Grigory Rodchenkov

[Jon Bertain @jonbertain]

@danroan From the team that has supported Grigory these last few years, thanks Dan for the attention going back to 2017. Your work makes a difference. All the best to you.

[Jon Bertain @jonbertain]

So encouraging to see @wada_ama's rectitude against #Russia's flagrant doping misdeeds. May the next chapter of Grigory Rodchenkov's story lead to even more profound truths, wherever they lead... With special meaning today, here's Dick Pound on "Rules"
