Russia, who hosts the World Cup in 2018 and hosted the last winter olympics in Sochi in 2014, have been banned from the Winter Olympics in light of the 'Everyone dopes in Russia' scandal. Of course, that is all fake news and the IOC bowed to pressure from Hillary Clinton.

Putin will likely "boycott" these Olympics and form his own Russian Olympics which will have hookers and blackjack.article said:Citing “systematic manipulation” of anti-doping rules, a 14-person International Olympic Committee panel announced Tuesday it has banned Russia from the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang. The panel had been mulling a confidential IOC report that detailed Russia’s official doping program during the 2014 Sochi Olympics, and the extensive cover-up.
As a result of this ban, no Russian officials will be allowed to attend the games. Their flag will be excluded from any display, and if any “clean” Russian athletes are given permission to attend, they won’t be competing under the Russian flag. They’ll compete under the name “Olympic Athlete from Russia” (OAR) and the Olympic flag, any medals they win won’t be credited to Russia and the Olympic anthem will be played in any ceremony.
