The Japanese organizer has decided to ban the audience from the Olympics, which began this week, in an effort to stem the increase in Covid-19 infection, with capital in an emergency until August 22.
Foreign visitors are prohibited from coming down the Tokyo 2020 match delayed.
“The emergency has been declared to Tokyo and on July 9 we see the decision is to ban the audience,” said the executive director of the Christophe Dubi Olympics to the online media table on Monday.
“Obviously, it is a decision that we respect.” “But there is one pleasant sentence that the situation must change the situation can be reviewed,” Dubi said, referring to the statement of the organizer of the decision.
“That other sporting events now have fans are the decision of the local authority.
We must respect that,” Dubi said.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) must cut the number of officials attending the opening ceremony on Friday to comply with health safety rules.
Some athletes, including the Japanese football team captain, Maya Yoshida, questioned the decision for the audience bar.
“A lot of tax money will hold this Olympics,” Yoshida recently.
“Even so, people can’t go and watch.
So, you wonder about who the Olympics are, and for what it is.” Dubi said such questions must be put in the committee and local authority.
“We have received questions from a number of athletes who are observing the same thing.
As far as the IOC regulated this decision and complying with this rule but you can overcome this question to the organizing committee or local authorities,” he said.
When asked by Reuters.
Dubi said there was still a possibility that the number of cases of Coronavirus fell, the organizers could review the ban.
