Moscow.May 19, (GNA\/dpa) – Olympic champion pole vaulter Yelena Isinbayeva is expected to resign from the Russian Anti-Doping Agency (RUSADA) to avoid a conflict of interest with her role in the Russian Olympic committee, state media reported Friday.<\/p>\n
The move, under pressure from the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), is designed to make RUSADA more independent as Russia struggles with a far-reaching doping scandal among its athletes.<\/p>\n
“This criteria is not intended to be against Lena,” Russian Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Mutko, in charge of sports issues, said in comments carried by state news outlet R-Sport.<\/p>\n
Isinbayeva, who won gold in the 2004 and 2008 Olympics, is expected to leave her post as head of RUSADA’s supervisory board by the end of this month.<\/p>\n
