The International Paralympics Committee (IPC) today said that it will conditionally readmit Russia by next month, lifting a suspension imposed over a doping scandal. A Kremlin spokesman responded by saying Russia is delighted.
The IPC says the ban will be lifted by 15th, providing the Russian Paralympic Committee (RPC) adhere to strict criteria.
In August 2016 the IPC suspended the RPC because it was necessary and proportionate to the situation they faced and essential to ensure a clean sport.
