No blanket ban on Russia at Rio
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe International Olympic Committee decides against a complete ban on Russian athletes from the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, and is leaving it up to global federations to decide which Russian athletes to accept in their sports.
But, the committee says, it will deny entry of Russian athletes who do not meet the requirements set out for the federations, and those federations have the authority under their own rules to exclude Russian teams as a whole from their sports.
