 Peskov: we hail IOC decision on Russian 'clean' athletes

The Kremlin welcomes the decision made by the International Olympic Committee to allow doping-clean Russian athletes to take part in the 2016 Summer Games, the Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.

"Undoubtedly we hail the IOC decision to allow the so-called clean athletes to participate in the Olympic Games based on the decisions made by international sports federations," TASS cited Peskov as saying.

"We believe this was a positive decision," he added.

According to the Kremlin spokesman, Russia is ready for an all-embracing cooperation with the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) and all other related organizations investigating suspected doping abuse cases in sports.
