the champions league final there are similar indications coming from the head of the international hockey federation who also said you know the upcoming world cup in russia in a few years time will also be held regardless of the decision by wada but for instance the international olympic committee namely the head of the the chairman of the i.o.c. he's already said pretty clear that whatever decision water comes up with the i.o.c. will listen to it and you know in a nutshell what we've been hearing and reading in the run up to this day it seems quite clear that if russia is to compete in tokyo and france the winter olympics that will be on the neutral flag again as we discussed earlier for many athletes this is a psychological catastrophe this is something they will never be able to live over for the younger athletes let's say 1618 it's not the end of the world because you know they're still progressing in their careers and even if the. the ban is applied to many international competitions you know the will come strong when they're 2223 and will still have hopefully very nice careers but what is very

that's a big question right now whether the world of sports the federations like the international hockey federation. and many others would actually say ok why are you you you gave us this ruling and we have to carry it out but it's almost certain this stage if the rumors are to be believed because again what we're hearing right now it's not set in stone it's not an official confirmation yet because apparently the press office of water just came out to journalists during the executive board meeting and said yes the c.r.c. recommendations have been fully implemented. what is the biggest story right now i think that russia will almost definitely miss out on the olympics next summer the question is whether it will miss out completely or just like it happened before competing on the neutral flag or the athlete representing russia or whatever it was called because in this sort of preliminary statement that. breast officer made it's already said that if russian athletes prove they are noncompliant their noninvolvement with noncompliance of water code then they can compete and participate it's even hard to

one of those is the world championship in ice hockey which is due to be held in russia and we have a source from the i.i.h.f. the international federation saying to real estate agency in russia that those will not be cancelled and will be taking place in russia so this is basically the 1st example already even though it's only like minutes after what happened and you know the 1st federation to say no guys it's not going to concern us we go is to going to hold the championship. here when it comes to feed we have a statement from them can all be really used as an official call but basically they said that before has taken his decision into consideration and will update on the further course of action because they don't know what to do with it yet nobody knows what to do with it yet because you know the specification that this ban relates to world 'd championships in the places where in the types of sport where a world champion is that it doesn't relate to europe doesn't relate asia africa whatever it's all very it's already mixed and very bizarre don't you think even if celtic measure of ev's what is like if we say it's a mega event or sp
