Rodchenkov meets with members of US Government Agency to discuss Russian doping

Grigory Rodchenkov, the main whistleblower who exposed the Russian doping scandal, has met with members of a United States Federal Government Agency to discuss sporting and wider political issues, Inside the Games reports.

Wearing a mask to hide his identity, the former Moscow Laboratory director spoke on issues including the "threat posed by Russia to the United States, corruption in international sports bodies, and how the United States can contribute to the international effort to counter doping fraud". 

He was meeting with Senators Ben Cardin and Cory Gardner and House of Representatives member Sheila Jackson-Lee - three representatives of the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe, also known as the US Helsinki Commission.

Rodchenkov's "precarious circumstances" in the US were also discussed after he fled from Russia more than two years ago.
