RIO DE JANEIRO， July 21 (Xinhua) -- The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has lifted a ban on Rio de Janeiro's drug-test laboratory， allowing the facility to test athletes during next month's Olympic Games.


The Brazilian doping control laboratory， or LBCD， as it is known， was stripped of its credentials in June based on its "non-conformity" with WADA standards.


In a statement issued late on Wednesday， the Montreal-based body did not explain what the lab did to recover its license to operate.


"Athletes can be confident that anti-doping sample analysis has been robust throughout the laboratory's suspension and that it will also be during the Games，" WADA director general Olivier Niggli said.


WADA previously said that blood and urine samples taken from athletes during the August 5-21 Rio Olympics would be analyzed at accredited laboratories outside Brazil.


LBCD was also stripped of its WADA accreditation before the 2014 football World Cup in Brazil. The suspension was lifted in May last year after the laboratory invested 60 million US dollars to upgrade equipment and train staff.




HELSINKI， May 18 (Xinhua) -- Finnish telecommunications company Nokia announced Wednesday that a new Finnish company called HMD was licensed to produce Nokia branded mobile phones and tablets.


The new gadgets would use the Android system， the manufacturer would be Foxconn based in Taiwan， said Nokia. HMD has its head office in Helsinki.


Licensing the Nokia brand to a new producer became possible following the expiry of the restrictions set in the deal between Nokia and Microsoft in 2013.


Nokia remained the owner of the Nokia brand when it sold its hand set business to Microsoft， but was restricted in the deal from licensing it to outsiders until the end of 2015.


The new company HMD made agreements both with Microsoft and Nokia about the use of the Nokia brand name and some design rights.


The agreement HMD now has with Nokia is exclusive and valid for 10 years. The agreement with Microsoft has some conditions and only covers the use of the Nokia name in basic phones. Microsoft would continue the production of the high-end Lumia brand， originally a Nokia product name.


In a parallel move， Microsoft announced on Wednesday it had sold its basic phone business to FIH Mobile， which is a subsidiary of Foxconn. HMD and Nokia Technologies entered an agreement on cooperation with FIH.
