The cognitive dissonance from the man is jarring. You're the governing body for the sport. Its your job to make sure this kind of stuff doesn't happen.

During the press conference, Millar asked McQuaid directly if the UCI should take more responsibility for what happened during the EPO era.

“I don’t think so. I don’t see why we should be apologetic. We do more testing than anyone else. If we got information at any point in time, we would act on that information. You did what you did, and you didn’t rush to inform that to the UCI. Others doped and then spent small fortunes to tell the UCI and the world they didn’t dope, only to later say they did,” McQuaid said testily. “UCI is not to blame for the culture of doping in the sport.”

So bizarre.
