“The podium and medal ceremony are not made? ??? For political or other demonstrations,” Bach told the Financial Times.
“They were made to honor the athletes and medal winners for the achievement of sports and not for their personal (view).” Its mission is to have the whole world together in one place and compete peacefully with each other.
This you will never manage if the game (becomes) breaks the split.
