Despite the war, the Olympics will be held - Bach

The International Olympic Committee is not considering cancelling the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris due to growing military conflicts.

Axar.az reports that this was said by the head of the International Olympic Committee, Thomas Bach.

"There is a very strong geopolitical tension, but to say that we will sacrifice the Olympic games in Paris would be a completely wrong approach. We have had many wars between governments and countries, but athletes have always participated in the games. This is in line with the Olympic mission. I don't know if there will be a world war, but the International Olympic Committee cannot betray the main idea of ​​sports," Bach said.
