controversy over the 'allocation of World Cup biathlon in 2021 to Russia. Max Cobb: "The IOC knew"

As might be expected, the decision to award the 2021 World Cup in Tyumen - namely Russia - had polemic nell''ambiente biathlon.

Everything stems from the request made by the IOC in July to all the international federations of winter sports, where the Olympic Committee invited the governing bodies of the disciplines of snow and ice to freeze the preparations of pi & ugrave events; Important planned in Russia, even holding ready to find alternative location. All as a result of the relationship McLaren, where the Ministry of Russian sport is accused of having established a state doping system from 2011 to 2014, including the Olympic Games in Sochi. Despite the recommendation of the IOC, the 'Ibu has entrusted the' organization of the World Cup of 2021 precisely to the Russian nomination in preference to those of the Czech Republic and Slovenia. Not surprisingly, the first voice of dissent comes precisely from the Czech Republic, with Ondrej Moravec who has openly declared as to his view "given the numerous cases of doping in Russian sports, Tyumen not deserve the World Cup." However, the more opposition comes from Scandinavia. The president of the Norwegian biathlon federation of Erlend Slokvik called verbatim "a scandal" the decision dell''Ibu. His predecessor Tore B ø ygard said that "The 'Ibu has suffered a blow on dell''etica plan and morals, damaging its reputation."

According to allegations made by the aforementioned source, the International Olympic Committee would give the green light, saying that un''eventuale award the World Cup to Russia in 2021 was not in conflict with the request made the previous month. If cos & igrave; He was, the IOC would have put the lie s & eacute; same. In truth & agrave; the demand-Recommendation of July & egrave; It was carried out in "newspeak" with such opaque formula and ambiguous not to have produced any tangible result. On the 'other hand, no international federation has taken action on the gi & agrave events; assigned. President dell''Ibu Anders Besseberg, Norwegian and then on the grill at home, seraphically commented: "I see no problem. There are ongoing investigations by both the Wada that by the IOC. In the next two years arriver & agrave; to conclusions, so we can always lift the World Cup in 2021 in Tyumen and reassign them during our Congress in 2018 ". In reality & agrave; Norwegian controversy & egrave; totally baseless, since & eacute; It seems to mean the 'Ibu as a unitary body that takes decisions
