The World Anti-Doping Agency is considering a rule that would bar government officials, including U.S. President Donald Trump, from attending the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics if their countries fail to pay annual dues by January 31. The proposal stems from ongoing tensions between the U.S. and WADA, with Washington owing approximately $7.3 million in unpaid contributions since 2023, largely over disputes regarding Chinese swimmers at the Tokyo Olympics.
