Russian Athlete Targeted Again

Editor's note: Definition of a conspiracy: the only Olympic competitor in Beijing caught in a "doping scandal" is the Russian 15 year-old figure skater Kamila Valieva. We shouldn't expect anything less as the Anglo-Americans are provoking Russia relentlessly through their proxies in Kiev to move into Ukraine. You're 15 years-old and you have been training hard for years dedicating your life up to that point to win the gold medal in figure skating at the 2022 Beijing Olympics. Would you be under "unprecedented pressure" if you were accused of doping? What would be the point of doping if Olympic competitors are rigorously tested? Are there doping drugs that can be masked or other drugs mistaken as doping drugs? As the western media continues to destroy any remaining reputation it has they have turned this into a "doping scandal." That's how it works. Provoke Russia relentlessly to invade Ukraine including a preposterous claim of a "chemical attack" then destroy Russia's international reputation in sports.

IOC President Thomas Bach on Kamila Valieva aftermath: 'It was chilling to see this'
By Les Carpenter | February 18, 2022

BEIJING — A few hours after watching Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva unravel on the final night of the women's individual skating competition, International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach said he was "disturbed" by what he saw.

The pressure on Valieva, following last week's revelation of her positive doping test and the Court of Arbitration for Sport hearing that allowed her to continue skating in the Olympics, was "beyond my imagination," Bach said unprompted in his opening remarks at Friday's IOC daily briefing.

What seemed to bother Bach most was the reaction from Valieva's coach Eteri Tutberidze who appeared on television to be angry with a weeping Valieva rather than supportive. [Editor's note: Clever interpretation.]

"When I afterwards saw how she was received by her closest entourage with what appeared to be a tremendous coldness, it was chilling to see this," he said. "Rather than giving her comfort, rather than try to help her, you could feel this chilling atmosphere, this distance, and if you were interpreting the body language, it was worse because it was some kind of dismissive gestures I saw there on TV."

Such a strong reaction was striking from an Olympic official who typically avoids controversial matters, often avoiding anything that might be considered political or meddling with the autonomy of a country's sports organization. But after Valieva's past week — from the revelation of her positive test for a banned heart medication to the lifting of her brief suspension by the Russian anti-doping authority to the IOC and World Anti-Doping Agency attempting to prevent her from skating this week to the scenes of her weeping and walking alone from the Olympics — Bach could not ignore what had happened and the public's reaction to it.

Yelena Isinbayeva broke down in front of Vladamir Putin expressing her dismay at the injustices perpetrated on Russian athletes when athletes from most countries regularly practice doping within acceptable limits. When Kamila Valieva returns to Russia she too will be at the Kremlin under the exact same circumstances.
