this is on maintaining order internal security and peace and hopefully also following the rules of the game and i think that's the issue not so much human rights violations although there has been unfortunately the issue as far as the state department is concerned has to do with the way in which the vote were counted in the recent election and the state department has decided not to take issue with the way in which the so-called electoral council has counted the votes you've been watching the top stories this morning on r.t. international as promised coming up a special documentary on the atlantic's doping scandal on the political age dope the new proxy war is next.

12:32 am
legal and what is not and for me personally it doesn't represent fair play. to how i'm sorry for the industry thinks the charge is absurd it's for the contradictions for there to focus a it's not trying to spiral by what i was what about it comes from work i used to spend spend spend spend old. was about east of the beach but some of you know the drill at that he builds a little boy to his buddies. well yes bush on his h.t. tell him dad the you know the police i met the youth middle of the fiesta the
12:33 am
country all of us who need it most of them without that side to me know she wouldn't just blather with so she does expose but some and that is that if you strong finish at the sites and they've been put away you know it's adjusting its used to he spoke with us a bit his it was too good i guess is we don't what is new yup i've. yet to get those chestnuts several months before the rio olympics yelena isinbayeva still believed in justice dept at those going into as if you're going to the most of was it wavelets faith it was let them evaluate the view those to mean there's an umbrella above with it but that's not just it was maybe it's because it hasn't yet though it's obvious that they did a lot but then we go which in addition to the spoken we have invited the rest of my husband i discard them into the room salutes if this didn't happen they banned the entire russian track and field team from the rio olympics. to avoid another. but i mean here b.s.
12:34 am
because it's. not going to burn. new delhi of course sensitive member of that city but out to the private you were just then mr krueger. leaders of the past the super bowl this is just one that think you know the chelsea of the stick by you did . to please the plane from prague and it will be the one thing that i worry i see what it is coming down at the bar that you actually don't feel that they have the support of the simula they look at me. and you go with a. michael rasmussen is a mountain biking champion king of the mountains of the two thousand and five two thousand and six two difference he builds a meteoric sports career and became one of the world's most famous cyclists. i think many people a wants to keep the illusion alive. and. i'm sorry if i have to break the news that. i do not believe in illusions. and. i think
12:35 am
that this sport in general has lost its virginity long time ago. barely known at the outset of his career it took eight years to become a cycling icon today rasmussen's over forty years old it's only now after his sports career is over that he's ready to talk openly about the methods he employed to become a champion i was taking former hansing drops over a total period of twelve years in my aim was to be the best athlete i could possibly be in order to win. the toughest sport competition in the world. and for me in order to do that. it was necessary also to. to push the rules and break the rules. they mean to be the best is a praiseworthy. ambition although in sports just as in any other battle there's
12:36 am
always a temptation to gain victory by any means. at the one thousand nine hundred four lympics and some lewis an american thomas hicks took a then popular cocktail of brandy laced with strychnine and ran in the marathon. after a while he fainted his coach gave him more dope takes continued eventually coming first although a team of doctors barely managed to revive him at the finishing line but still he got his gold medal. since then the pharmaceutical industry has made giant strides it does develop drugs designed for prolonged use the harm to athletes health can't be detected immediately but their performances in hans straight away. corticosteroids has a lot of benefits in terms of treating injuries but it also has a very very pleasant side effect if you are an athlete that wants to perform at the
12:37 am
highest level because. it causes weight loss. and which is where important when you're cycling. the fact that athletes were attaining amazing results is not what attracted attention to doping. what couldn't be ignored was the death toll of athletes who died in their prime. between nine hundred seventy five and nine hundred eighty over two hundred doping linked deaths were registered in various sports around the world. the i.o.c. had to respond although it was rather tardy. it wasn't until nine hundred ninety nine that the world and created. day with pharmaceutical companies in their turn promote their products within this list lobbyist's van anshul injections again and the infusion into their friend didn't roll well your budget going to school one.
12:38 am
the question is simple to do provides a foundation for the world of sports. i know that within the team while there were many great athletes i was in the team with a nice man show if i was in the team but michael bogut and a lot of all the big names. and for them it was not an offer to perform at the highest level without using the off elements and some drops. in cycling it has happened many times that we take one single ride out instead of looking at the whole the whole structure. it happened when. they went off the lance armstrong it was one rider they went after. to get it busting lance armstrong boosted was his authority. was a goal of sports in the eyes of many what's more he conquered the sporting world after beating an incurable disease and making
12:39 am
a remarkable comeback but adulation soured in may twentieth when a former teammate of armstrong's testified he'd seen him taking prohibited drugs on many occasions launce was stripped of all his awards. vision's was satisfied. that doping contradicts the principle of play says waters code however there's a paradox the anti doping rules allow doping in certain cases but only by athletes to whom water has given permission this information is top secret to use one of those words it's confidential. the fans have been as hackers website extended its greetings to the world it announced that it stands for fan play and clean sport wide as moto incidentally is the same. said the attack the water size and will.
12:40 am
shocked by what it did seen it started with american in pick champions because some of their victories appeared dubious. liking is illegal but shouldn't. really be you. sensible people may say about medical records i don't have to do any sympathy for that i don't think it's a good thing fancy beds published five lists of past leads with positive doping tests over two hundred u.s. spokesman and women had obtained permission to use banned drugs for therapeutic purposes all data collected on athletes is stored in the adams electronic system this system had been impregnable fortress this doctor was illegally obtained from a real twenty sixteen olympic games the current. time was the broader system. above all want to remain confident in its systems and continue
12:41 am
city the security of us treat dr extremely she actually some of my house with this doesn't exist of stuff then it is then into the what in the in the senate probably he's supposed to there's i think said bill and then they said they don't need to communicate that i'm going to w you mustn't. and yet he's not so. that you can just set the new part of this if you can to get on with the slingshot by the way because that is so dumb way to buy you know my opinion my but the business done with. that is that's because now you released. just this definition it is now you. are used to work twelve years. twelve years i was in charge of. developing the cold through running the team to develop the code the international standards so you really need is an international style that is being. consultation. around the world and everybody agreed
12:42 am
this this should be. when people are sick they. have to be cation that needs to be a system where they can be given this credit but there has to be strict measurements. yeah you can easily test the substance but you have a permit to use it and basically it's just a matter of inventing an injury. so you know your team doctor would right that you having tendonitis in your left knee and then. basically giving you. a free pass to use of course to reuters during a tour de france for example the queen of artistic gymnastics four time olympic champion nineteen year old simone biles won five medals four of which were gold in the rio olympics tests taken just before the games showed four instances of banned substances but she was not suspended from the competition after the fancy bears
12:43 am
hackers exposed the queen she took to twitter to defend herself i have aged and i have taken medicine for it since i was a kid please no i believe in clean sport i have always followed the rules and will continue to do so a.d.h. he is one of the most widespread disorders children of diagnosed with what is it really an illness a child on able to keep still and always being reprimanded for it at school is a familiar story the amphetamine from one twenty milligram pill is quickly absorbed into the bloodstream and has a favorable influence on the nervous system it calms you down many gymnasts look very nervous before the start everybody by contrast simone biles is a model of focus and concentration. puter cues exemption so i think has to be allowed because there are medical conditions but it needs to be transparent it can't be hidden. that somebody is taking these medications which
12:44 am
actually can calm the nerves which is the real issue in competitions so it needs to be transparent right now it's not transparent. tennis has always been considered the cleanest sport one case of doping detected in a thousand tests this is the official data according to anonymous pose sixty five percent of tennis players take banned drugs among them the williams sisters serena and venus they have muscular and powerful bodies seemingly created by nature itself but during the last five years they have had sixteen t u e's for to the long with victories with millions in prize money something worth fighting for their first time someone right now it's the u.s. anti-doping agency that approves the t.u.e. is and and it's not disclosed it's not transparent so in a way fancy bears the hacking group. they did
12:45 am
a service by signing a light on this it's a little bit like wiki leaks. it was only things to the hackers but the. extensive use of t.u.e. . if sports fans around the world could look on the internet to see who had been tested by wada offices who had fallen foul and who had been authorized by wada to used. there would be no need for how because. here's what people have been saying about redacted in. the law and author of the only show i go out of my way to. really pack them. yeah john oliver of marty america is doing the same we are apparently better than booth . see people you never heard of love back to the night president of the
12:46 am
world bank very. seriously you sent us an e-mail. want to transformed itself from a humble and peace center into in the via able to coalition wants to impose conditions not only on astley's but also on the i.o.c. which actually created the agency that said water has lost the war against doping more than once but it admits that reluctantly and with reservations. against doping and we need i am optimistic for two reasons basically the first one is that if you look at it carefully we can find some satisfactions we can find some victories in the fight against doping so yes there are the so on point is it cannot get worst. the agency always needs to prove it's
12:47 am
capable of beating the monster the question is who will be the monster the decision is always made behind the scenes. that's just. your. turn you. know i think. we. want them to get back to not going to be a bit different a little bit down. year after year the winners podiums in major competitions are graced by norwegian representatives as the publication discovered seventy percent of norwegian olympic medals since one thousand nine hundred ninety two have been won by us magics. to get upset about us is not old enough to get our. supper was simply. based on your toes asked what
12:48 am
the percentage. was nielsen your study says number without someone to say yes my skin what would be nice is guess what skin will give you what they sell you by leaving nothing like this for. the obvious reasons competing asked leitz don't want to talk about it today i'd be more in the mix so i'm very disappointed that it is not possible. for a girl told. me the opposite. of. the famous no we march in sunday is also one who enjoys therapeutic exemption the king of the mountain is a two time winner of the world cup in the overall standing a world champion in the team relay on two occasions and twice on the limpid medalist while achieving all this he was taking a prescription medicine fast mom. what is with. the best male skier in the world is that he was diagnosed with the child he has he has to
12:49 am
condition and therefore in order to be able to compete he needs assman medicine what happened with. the norwegian doctor charles to administer administer. last moments and in a very unusual way where he used a machine i was almost ten times where we limit he was suspended from competitions for two months but in the summer months not winter ones although he could have been suspended for four years according to the wada rule book martin sun be officially i'm with waters authorization took a drug called fish gives an adrenaline rush so in this case isn't the only one kind of the evacuees so here is my magical. syria hale is a two times junior ski racing won't champion she was on the norwegian national team
12:50 am
. i felt it was something wrong even here in my throw so i went to the doctor and i blew out in the machine you know and he saw that there was irritation and then he said there is irritation here so i think you should use ventilation and i just tried that. training and i felt this was awkward to use it because i didn't have a smile stuck to it and i think i didn't really think more about this i am not very fond of. drugs i'm not fond of the no we just who are used made the comments that even though it's legal it is given to people i believe shouldn't get it because we are in the gray area and that's the life that we are in i want it to be fair play. soon enough to syria stop taking me as my drug she had to leave the team. everybody should be tested and. there should be
12:51 am
there are going to be investigations so i think the mandate for that should be enough to work one particular country itself. and leaving there and nations outside who even have. a history of a lot of cases by now but you were just just multiply the story of the story that i see you know my problem adoption go down this was. what i see in the search tool now missing you just missed don't know cooks it's me problem meticulousness know if they would you start on that thank you i mean. get a minute kenya your movement by as of american you watch it but you just giftedness but it's me and i spoke with a vocal that's used to release any particular shuttering it'll work double that just because it's a slow an evolution is not what we're going to start at the bottom to start a meet but i see is this less time than you counted on you but i see the music of the school can you tell she's too much school for to be looking to the right of us
12:52 am
muslim population. if you don't you just consider it is a suicide say now at the when you lose this list of us problem it is safe to say i'm innocent little bits of the history of anti doping campaigns falls into two periods before twenty fourteen and a few months after russia's triumphs of the sochi olympics zeroed in on a monster and declared war on it and it wasn't just one athlete like lance armstrong but an entire country russia. the first thing i should say is because you are actually is and the country is a big powerful would ever and every successful country so you would be mad if i actually successful you had dozens of very good that so that is why the shop if i see the waves are big here but you have no choice swallow the people it is this bit they are the head of the moscow anti doping aboard trade
12:53 am
grigori roche in cove was the first one in the firing line queues dim of destroying over fourteen hundred. a few days prior to testing. moved to the usa where he admitted abusing his position the main suspects have become number one in forma water was the one that demanded his dismissal from the moscow laboratory. that was water that said he couldn't be believed in the first commission report apparently the evidence says that there were there was some extortion or bribery going on he was being paid to change the test results a lot of people say well. he's not trustworthy he's a criminal. well he's not in certain respects why did we believe him well there's really two fundamental reasons first. he was at risk if he didn't tell the truth to my myself and members of my team. but he
12:54 am
loses visa and he be deported. and that's the view to draw the conclusions from what would happen there. i think if those reports are related to some other country they would have been that country but they did so i don't think russia is being picked on and i didn't personally pick on russia i was given a mandate and i followed the mandate sorry mr fair has to get it right thank you the lawyer declared that his principal goal was fighting the system fighting the monster who had been exposed by a hole in the wall of the sochi testing lab richard mclaren has been painting a vivid picture of this for the past two years that's the edge of the building and the next building in the layout would be the command center for the f.s.b. and they were in the storage locker there and they were seen by dr robert shank up according to rajan calls testimony during the sanchia lympics the home was used to swap year in samples with the aid of the mighty f.s.b. intelligence service and. was the only one who saw the secret device used to open
12:55 am
up athletes dope written some tools and swapped them for clean ones. the former british cyclist dan stevens has publicly tossed down the gauntlet and accused water thinking in cold war terms. i think the real reason. it's these fall for protected affluence. and fair i think. and the industry. and the role. is by stalled politics criterion of opinion it's. for political reasons stevens has been attempting to expose british doctor. one hundred fifty british athletes to receive banned drugs that is private. clinic
12:56 am
but where are these one hundred fifty athletes now and why didn't want to hold an investigation so how could industry is in charge is absurd it's full of contradictions for there to focus a it's not trying spiral lie with lies one of money comes from work i used how we spend spend spend spend all wadded it's a got. three from the stall why that was you were going to put me in a rock room and the torah and the mission it's not against me who is that succeeds thing is that the money the usual vishal that you have even if we put you bite someone all the anti doping organizations of course receiving. many lots of foundings from their countries as always what we hear is that now we are getting very close to finding the perfect solution for this but we are not quite there yet
12:57 am
. we need more money right. and i think at the end of the day. it will never be solved. just disperses just threw it in the credit suspects may have caught them at the but there is doubt that they got both up a genius like you still idiots bank the skies must admit that much too little frost was just.
12:58 am
if you trust the mainstream media well then you're in the minority sadly a great deal of media today is not designed to inform but rather confirm political biases this approach of the news is not only polarizing but it's also lowering journalistic standards is this why readers and viewers seek their news elsewhere. whenever you buy a russian product you know just get a gauge of the quality. of the little bit of his work.
12:59 am
look. team russia will be absent from the twenty eighteen winter olympics the hundred dollars by the international olympic committee after a two year long doping scandal however the remains of no concrete evidence to back claims of a state sponsored drug program. these the right to sleep so we'll put to sleep aids between individual or team competitions under the name olympic else leads from russia. dismay and disappointment was visible among the russian up late sounds the i.o.c. announce the balance of its headquarters in switzerland say's it know has to make the decision on whether to boycott the games entirely. also ahead the u.s.
