The consequences that nowadays manifest themselves in the Russian sportscommunity are off to be comprehended, and the negative impact they have had on theresults of our state’s domestic and foreign policy will only have an effect after a few decades.The exclusion of national teams from participation in international competitions, the massdisqualification of high-class athletes, the ban on holding of international competitionsin Russia is not a complete list of measures applied to the Russia by international sportsorganizations.

The analysis will identify gaps in thedoping legislation and determine the prospects and directions for its development andimprovement. In process of research scholar methods were implemented: historical,system-structural, logical and dialectical (general scholar methods), as well as formallegal, comparative, legal dogmatic and other special methods.
