Russia's World Athletics Lawsuits Have ‘Very, Very High’ Chance of Victory: Olga Bogoslovskaya
22:17 10.08.2026 (Updated: 22:34 10.08.2026) The All-Russian Athletics Federation’s lawsuits with the Court of Arbitration for Sport are designed to nudge World Athletics president Sebastian Coe in the right direction, to follow other international sports federations in partially reinstating Russian athletes, Russian world champion and 1992 Olympic silver medallist Olga Bogoslovskaya said.
Coe’s continued intransigence, which goes back over a decade now, is absolutely groundless, with the doping complaints used as a pretext to bar
Russian athletes from competing in 2015 long closed, and “no other claims left” – only politicization targeting both Russia and Belarus.
“It’s clearly just politics. There are no other grounds for continuing to treat Russian and Belarusian athletes in this manner,” Bogoslovskaya emphasized.
The veteran master of sports says Russia’s legal appeals are backed “both by very good financial and legal resources,” and that “in both the short and long term, the chance that all athletes will be reinstated, along with the federation, are very, very high.”
