U.S. Withholds $3.6 Million Funding From WADA Over 23 Chinese Swimmers' Doping Tests, Supported by U.S. Anti-Doping Agency
Jan 8, 2025, 09:36 PM
The U.S. government has decided to withhold $3.6 million in funding to the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) due to concerns over the agency's handling of positive doping tests involving 23 Chinese swimmers. This decision has been publicly supported by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, which emphasized the need for WADA to promote fair play in international sports. The White House's action reflects a broader push for accountability within sports governance, particularly regarding the integrity of Olympic competitions. Lawmakers have also warned WADA and the International Olympic Committee against perceived intimidation tactics towards the United States.
