International Skating Union (ISU) President Jan Dijkema will await the outcome of International Olympic Committee (IOC) investigations into allegations of state sponsored Russian doping at Sochi 2014 before deciding on any action.

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA)-commissioned McLaren Report alleged that around 1,000 Russians across Summer, Winter, non-Olympic and Paralympic sport were implicated in a doping manipulation scheme at events taking place between 2011 and 2015.

Disciplinary proceedings have been opened by the IOC against 28 Russians who competed at the Sochi 2014 Winter Games.

Italian newspaper La Gazetta dello Sport has reported that ladies singles figure skating champion Adelina Sotnikova is among those on the list.

The IOC’s Oswald Commission is looking into allegations of sample manipulation at Sochi 2014, while it is also analysing all samples given by Russian athletes at London 2012.

Another IOC Commission, chaired by Samuel Schmid, the former President of the Swiss Confederation and a member of the IOC Ethics Commission, is addressing the "institutional conspiracy across summer and winter sports athletes who participated with Russian officials within the Ministry of Sport and its infrastructure, such as RUSADA, CSP and the Moscow Laboratory along with the FSB".

Dijkema told insidethegames, the situation was in the hands of the IOC and he would await the outcome of both investigations.

"They have two Commissions and we are waiting for the results of them," he said here.

"All the winter sport federations are in the same approach.

"We are doing are job and if there is news of this we will release it.

"Regarding Sochi, this is up to the IOC.

"There are two important Commissions and we are awaiting the results of those."

His comments come after United States Figure Skating President Sam Auxier said Russia should be banned from competing at Pyeongchang 2018 due to doping problems.

Speaking during the US Figure Skating Championships last month, Auxier suggested that the world's largest nation should receive "a punishment fitting of the crimes" alleged in the McLaren Report.

United States Figure Skating, however, then sent a letter to the ISU and all ISU members distancing themselves from these comments.

A meeting is due to take place between the Association of International Olympic Winter Sports Federations (AIOWF) and WADA later this month to discuss the evidence.

The IOC have no specific timeline to complete their investigations into wrongdoing at Sochi 2014.

Conclusions are expected to be made public at some stage this year.
