The International Olympic Committee has rejected recommendations to ban Russia from Rio Olympics.
Many are accusing the International Olympic Committee of not taking a decisive action against Russia for its alleged state-sponsored doping programme.
The summer Olympic games in Rio de Janeiro are just a few weeks away. But hundreds of Russian athletes still don't know whether they'll be competing.
The International Olympic Committee was expected to impose a blanket ban on Russia. But instead the organisation announced on Sunday that Russian athletes will be individually drug-tested and scrutinised, before they can be cleared for competition.
Thomas Bach, IOC president, says the plan is ambitious but necessary.
