World Athletics President Sebastian Coe praised Kenya's commitment to addressing doping after several positive tests for banned substances
in November despite an increasing number of its athletes being suspended for positive tests.
During a visit to Kenya, Coe contrasted the approach of the country's sports authorities with that in Russia, which he said involved state-supervised cover-ups. "The fact that all these agencies are in alignment and prepared to work alongside World Athletics and the Athletics Integrity Unit is a very, very important statement," he said, while cautioning that Kenya faced a "long journey" to root out doping.
Kenya has faced accusations of widespread use of performance-enhancing drugs for years. In 2016, it put in place an anti-doping law with stiffer penalties in order to avoid a ban from the Rio Olympics.
