how can you still trust this bunch of ***??? it's clear that they're just a political instrument and they don't have any intention to fight for a clean sport...

So, Norway can still cheat its wat to the top at every Winter Olympics.

 

Nice bias WADA.

I "love" how the NOC presidents are given an "individual" IOC membership instead of linked to function within a NOC. But there is even better thing than that - as well as Coates, who had a burning chair in Australia and his status was changed from linked to NOC to individual, the same goes with   William F. Blick who was elected an IOC member... just two years ago.

Well the Mongolian guy is at the very least the Vice President of their NOC, so at least there’s some experience there.
