This report is very important because it talks about some doping cases from the past without giving the names, only the names of the countries.

This means that we still don’t know all the names, and I really tried to find them all.
This is not ok considering that according to the 2015 WADA Code (which is now in force): ” 10.13 Automatic Publication of Sanction A mandatory part of each sanction shall include automatic publication, as provided in Article 14.3. ”
