MOSCOW - Russia’s suspended athletics federation named an acting president on Saturday a day after the sport’s global governing body halted its reinstatement process and raised the possibility of it being expelled altogether.
“The mood is not very cheerful. The situation at the federation is very difficult,” Tarasenko, who also serves as the head of St Petersburg’s athletics federation, told reporters. This week, however, Shlyakhtin and other federation officials were provisionally suspended for having provided false explanations and forged documents to explain three whereabouts violations by Russian high jumper Danil Lysenko, the silver medalist at the 2017 world championships.The charges against Shlaykhtin and the six others prompted World Athletics, the global governing body of athletics formerly known as the IAAF, to suspend the federation’s reinstatement process.
