Good decision by IOC. There should not be any tolerance for doping in sports, regardless if you are Russian Olympic Team or San Marino universiade team.

This's way too much handling situation with Russia , like we're living in 100 % clean sports world and the only problem for this clean world come from Russia 

Doping goes on in every country in the world.

What doesn't go on in every country is a system where the government is involving in hiding drug use,

That's the big problem with Russia (and probably a handful of other countries).

I wouldn’t be surprised it’s a concession the IOC made to avoid a Russian boycott.

 

To be honnest it’s a bit academic. It’s a different IOC code, doesn’t really matter if the medals are counter for IOA or OAR. Everybody knows the athletes are Russian either way.
