Russian Sergey Ustyugov said in an interview with the Norwegian media that it is not under pressure history with doping scandals surrounding the sport. 24-year-old athlete won the first two race in the "Tour de Ski". – I honestly don't know, as I look at all the other athletes – quoted by VG Ustyugov. – Maybe someone is looking at me strangely. I didn't see it. Of course, I am happy with the results. I like to fight and win. Want to win the "Tour de Ski". Will do anything for that. – I believe you have a suspicion, given all the checks? Maybe it was the passports of blood or because of something else. But I don't feel any pressure from anti-doping authorities. – Can you say clean? – Yes, you can. – Is it possible to be a Russian, to win and not to fall under suspicion? I don't like such questions. Hate to hear that if you speak Russian and well, it is likely that under doping. I don't like that people think and ask such questions. My friends who stayed at home, watching the race on TV, give me strength. I speak for them. – If they send you messages? – Yes, they wish me good luck. They are happy when I win. We are close to them. http://boobliki.com/sports/356-sergey-ustyugov-it-is-unpleasant-to-hear-questions-about- doping-and-suspicion Tol.org

Russian Doping Whistleblower Polarizes Opinions Praised abroad, runner’s decision to expose state-sponsored program have often met with an angry reaction in .

2 January 2017

A “traitor" who "blackened our government and the whole country” – that’s how a local from Kursk in western Russia describes Yuliya Stepanova (pictured), the Russian runner who contributed greatly to the revelations that have tarnished the reputation of the country’s sports programs. Those thoughts echoed a feeling shared by many in the country, the BBC found out after journeying to Stepanova’s hometown to find out local reactions to their native daughter’s fateful decision.

Together with her husband Vitaly Stepanov, a former Russian anti-doping official, Stepanova meticulously documented the doping she was exposed to, and took part in, during her sporting career, including the authorities’ habit of turning a blind eye to athletes who chose to “run dirty” in order to enhance their performances. After their allegations were run by German broadcaster ARD, the couple emigrated to the United States, saying they feared for their safety, according to AP.

The mere mention of her name is enough to get a BBC reporter almost thrown out of the school she studied at. The consequences were even harder on her family, with Stepanova’s mother experiencing harassment at her workplace in a hospital, for raising an “unpatriotic daughter,” the BBC writes.

Still, some people also showed appreciation for Stepanova’s deeds. “I can't say I'm proud of her but she did what needed to be done," an engineering student told the BBC, while a retired person condoned her actions on the grounds that she acted "according to her conscience," and "betrayed nobody."

The official reaction was far from warm, with Russian President ’s spokesman calling her a “Judas,” while Russian sports officials insisted that Stepanova’s allegations were an isolated incident, according to the BBC.

“The problem everyone faces in Russia is that as soon as you open your mouth you will be fired from the places you are employed by ... There is nowhere you can go. You open your mouth and you lose all your jobs. I don’t think many people are ready to do that,” Stepanov said according to .  Last week, in an interview with , the head of the Russian anti-doping agency admitted the existence of an "institutional conspiracy" meant to hide doping in Russian sports. But she claimed that no government top officials were involved.

 For the Rio Olympics, Russia competed with a stripped-down team, after around a third of the original list of 389 competitors were barred, most on suspicion of doping. The Stepanov couple’s revelations were credited, as well as blamed in Russia, for that.

 Stepanova’s steroid usage was also detrimental to her career, leading to a two-year ban for blood passport abnormalities in 2013, and a ban from last year’s Rio Olympics, the BBC writes in a different article. She had hoped to compete under a neutral flag.

 The governing body, IAAF, provisionally suspended Russia last November after the anti-doping agency WADA released a sensational report claiming the Russian government likely helped trainers and officials run the doping scheme.

Según las fuentes el nuevo caso de doping, que tiene a un jugador de Guaraní como protagonista, habría ocurrido en agosto del 2016. Sin embargo, el caso recién sale a la luz en los últimos días del año a raíz de los diversos trámites que se cumplieron para notificar a la Asociación Paraguaya de Fútbol (APF). En la tarde del viernes se conoció la noticia de que un jugador de Guaraní estaría involucrado en un nuevo caso de doping. El Dr. Carlos Frutos Porro explicó que el laboratorio encargado de realizar las pruebas antidoping no declara si esta es positiva o no, más bien realiza un informe contando la existencia de un resultado adverso que es enviado a la FIFA, luego a la WADA (Agencia Mundial Antidoping) y a la ONAD (Organización Nacional Antidoping) para finalmente llegar a la APF y al jugador. Todo este trámite hizo que el caso saltara a luz recién en los últimos días del 2016. “Un resultado de laboratorio no arroja un llamado doping positivo, el laboratorio lo que envía es un informe con el resultado al que llamamos adverso. Para que eso se convierta en un doping positivo este atleta debe ser sometido a diferentes procedimientos, entre ellos, la realización de otras pruebas o la apertura del frasco B (segunda muestra de la misa que arrojó el resultado adverso) y una investigación de la comisión médica y del Tribunal Disciplinario para determinar si el caso se convierte en doping positivo o no”, expresó Frutos Porro. La sustancia que arrojó el “resultado adverso” en las muestras del jugador de Guaraní sería la octopamina que es producida por el cuerpo humano y pude ser encontrada en las naranjas agrias y sirve como estimulante, similar a la cafeína y la efedrina los cuales podrían tener efectos quemadores de energía y supresores del apetito, aumentando la tasa metabólica. Como consecuencia, se produciría una pérdida de peso. “Si este atleta ingirió un té de cascara de naranja agria antes de un partido esta sustancia va a estar presente en su orina”, agregó el médico. http://www.radio970am.com.py/articulo/17651/el-nuevo-caso-doping-surgi-en-agosto- /41
