One of the key IPC demands toward Russia is that "the RPC will not appoint any Russian government official to its governing board, executive committee, or in any other role."
The IPC on August 7 suspended the RPC membership due to its inability to fulfil its membership responsibilities and obligations, in particular its obligation to comply with the IPC Anti-Doping Code and the World Anti-Doping Code.
