We must respect the rules of the IOC, ... The IOC fears police raids in the athletes' village.
In Italy there are strong feelings about doping.
It's clear at this point ... that parliament doesn't want to change the law.
What happens now? I haven't got a clue.
Personally I am opposed to sending athletes to jail for doping. We need to apply the laws to suppliers and doctors, not athletes. Two-year sport bans are devastating enough.
You can't change Italian law. But everyone agrees that there could be a moratorium during the games. We are preparing legislation to put into effect exclusively during the games.
Parliament doesn't intend making changes to the law.
What happens now, I haven't the slightest idea.
The IOC is convinced that sporting sanctions are enough in the fight against doping.
