This is certainly a blow on the face of any country not to say of a country like Russia. This punishment came when it was cleared that they are guilty of a systematic drug to cheat in many sporty events in years.

The World Anti-Doping Agency also found out that the Russia arm of the agency has been tampered with whereof corrupt, and they have been giving wrong and fake result on most of the tests that are being carried out. The Ban will affect Russia, in the 2020 Olympics in Tokyo and the World Cup in 2022.
Also, the head of the WADA agency in Russia made it know that many tests results went missing, and they are been deleted.

This is a complicated matter, and the name of the President was also mentioned in this. A report also came that Russia planted 'Fabricated evidence' to spoil the reputation of the former head of WADA laboratory. If this is accurate, then it may be because he was opposing some of their plans, and they want to get rid of him so that they will be able to operate freely.

The former head WADA in Moscow, Grigory Rodchenkov made it know last year that he was simply following orders, and he has not done anything on his own. He also made it known that he reports everything that is happening to the Deputy Prime Minister Mutko, and he knew he would tell the President about it. However, Putin denied all these.

In short, this will ruin the athletes a bit, but the ones that are not found guilty will be given the chance to perform in the coming Olympic game, but not with the Russia flag. Most probably with a neutral flag.

Their football team still have some games to play, but they may be pardon. Russia as a nation can still appeal about this, and maybe things will take another turn from there. However, they have a limited time of 21 days to appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport. What a Blow for them!
