IAAF Taskforce Report to the IAAF Council about the Russian Athletics Federation (RusAF) - 6 March 2018

IAAF Taskforce report to IAAF Council, 6 March 2018 / Rune Andersen. - International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF). - Monaco : IAAF, 2018


Rune Andersen, the independent chairman of the IAAF Taskforce, delivered its latest report on the reinstatement of the Russian Athletics Federation (RusAF). The Taskforce’s recommendation, which Council unanimously approved, was that RusAF was not ready for reinstatement.

While some conditions have been met, the commission reported, several key areas have still not been satisfied by RusAF and RUSADA including providing a test distribution plan for 2018 that shows an adequate amount of testing and demonstrating that is has fixed legal issues making it unable to enforce provisional doping bans of athletics coaches. Additionally, RUSADA has still not yet been reinstated by WADA as a fully compliant independent body.

Council has agreed that if progress is not made, further measures should be discussed at the July Council meeting as a means of prompting greater efforts in Russia, including withdrawing permission for Russian athletes to compete as neutrals athletes, and ultimately taking the steps necessary to recommend to Congress that RusAF be expelled from IAAF membership.
