LAUSANNE, Switzerland -- After months of barbs and sparring between Olympic and anti-doping officials, World Anti-Doping Agency president Craig Reedie expects an end to public conflict.The rift has widened since July, when a WADA-commissioned report detailed a state-backed doping program in Russia for the 2014 Sochi Olympics and across summer and winter sports.The International Olympic Committees leadership rejected WADAs call to ban all Russian teams from the Rio de Janeiro Games, and the agency has since seemed to have fewer allies in world sports.Reedie told The Associated Press on Wednesday he sensed a truce after two days of WADA-hosted meetings with Olympic officials that worked beyond my expectations.Any public criticism that there has been, certainly from our side and I am sure now from the Olympic movement side, will stop, said the WADA president, who was also an IOC executive board member in the tense lead-in to Rio.WADAs role in anti-doping will be debated at an Olympic summit in Lausanne on Oct. 8, and IOC President Thomas Bach has called upon his members to bring fresh ideas.Still, asked if WADA was under threat, Reedie says: I would be very surprised. Why would it be?We have been under pressure and strain because of cheating in the biggest country in the world, Reedie said.

This is not prolonging by several months, Niggli said.That timetable would allow WADA to digest the reports impact before Nov. 19-20 meetings of its foundation board and executive committee in Glasgow, Scotland.Reedie chaired a meeting of the WADA executive Wednesday that included two IOC board members -- Ugur Erdener of Turkey and Gian Franco Kasper of Switzerland -- plus the Olympic bodys medical director, Richard Budgett.Erdener and Budgett declined to comment to The AP after the meeting.While WADA has seemed under attack by the Olympic family, it has been the victim of a cyberattack on its database of athletes private medical records. WADA has said hackers linked to Russia are responsible for the leaks of dozens of athletes data which began last week.Niggli said the Montreal-based agency is working with the FBI and RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) on the case.
