Russia has for years been embroiled in doping scandals that have forced its athletes to be barred from competing under their flag and national colours.

The head of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has said he remained sceptical and concerned about Russia's anti-doping practices as some of the country's athletes prepare to compete as neutrals at this year's Paris Summer Olympics.

Speaking at the WADA Annual Symposium in Lausanne, WADA President Witold Banka said he had received many questions from concerned athletes regarding the Russians who could be competing in Paris.
