In recent years, there has been a debate over

I will discuss why it is important to ensure that sport is not a part of

global politics and provide a list of the arguments that show why certain actors are interested to conduct sporting events in states that do not follow some provisions of the global humanitarian law.
The fact that the

Federation was chosen to be the host of the FIFA

Cup 2018 sparked many speculations in the Western

competitions. Indeed, there has been some evidence of doping usage by some
Russian
athletes in the previous years, but the international community put too much attention on the issue, making almost every person who is doing
sports
in Russia to be a user of a certain restricted medicament. The
World
Cup in Russia,
however
, proved everyone to be wrong since the
Russian
Government managed to organise the event on the highest level, meeting the requirements of the various international
sports
organisations, while the attendees of the competition were so surprised to find that everything that was written in the newspapers was a myth.

In conclusion, I do believe that the international community should ensure the equal and proper participation of every state in

However
