  Russia, China, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Moldova and Turkey - were suspended by the International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) until October 19 this year for having multiple positives in the retesting of doping samples from the 2008 and 2012 Olympic Games.

 

 

so they will not participate in Buenos aires

That's where you stopped reading or what?  Exactly one sentence further:

 

Quote

Maxim Agapitov, President of the Russian Weightlifting Federation (RFWF), said the IWF had offered the nine a chance to return early provided they meet certain conditions, and only at youth - 15 to 17-years-old - level.

 

The nine are deemed by the IWF to have made good progress in trying to eradicate the doping culture that has caused the sport so many problems, said Agapitov, and the length of suspension at youth level would be cut from 12 months to 10.

Junior, 17 to 20-years-old, and senior teams will have to see out the full one-year suspension.

 

This means that all nine nations will be eligible to take part in the Youth Olympics in Buenos Aires, beginning on October 6.

1984 olympic blood doping scandal

 

if you want to buy it on AMAZON

 

In a forgotten episode, seven members of the United States cycling team blood doped at the 1984 Olympic games in Los Angeles where they won a record number of medals. Where the athletes coerced by over zealous coaches more focused on winning medals than protecting athletes' health? Tainted Blood explores the secret world where athletes push themselves to the brink to risk everything.

The case of Froome will most likely not be solved before the Giro d'Italia, meaning he will very likely start there.

Terrible for cycling if he is actually allowed to start there..
