IOC President Expresses Confidence in WADA Amid Criticism Over Chinese Swimmers’ Doping Case

International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Thomas Bach reaffirmed his “full confidence” in the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) despite criticism regarding its handling of positive doping tests by Chinese swimmers. In an interview at the IOC’s headquarters in Switzerland, Bach addressed concerns over WADA’s decision not to challenge China’s explanation of food contamination causing the positive tests.

Bach emphasized that the IOC is awaiting the results of WADA’s internal investigation before making any determinations about the participation of Chinese swimmers in the upcoming Paris Olympics. He stressed the importance of following proper procedures and evidence-based decision-making, stating that athletes should not be excluded from the Games without adequate support from relevant authorities.

While the China Anti-Doping Agency (CHINADA) pledged cooperation with WADA’s audit, the US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) criticized the review process as lacking independence. Bach acknowledged these concerns but expressed confidence in WADA’s ability to conduct a thorough investigation.

In addition to doping issues, Bach addressed other Olympic matters, including the conflict between Israel and Palestine and security concerns for the Paris 2024 opening ceremony. Despite security considerations, Bach expressed optimism about the planned location of the opening ceremony along the Seine River.

Regarding speculation about his potential third term as IOC president, Bach declined to comment, citing recommendations from the IOC Ethics Commission. He emphasized the importance of focusing on the upcoming Paris Olympics before discussing any potential amendments to IOC statutes.
