No.1: "Organization will adapt, it will be a sign of hope" (ANSA)


"We continue to work, and converse fruitfully with the national athletes and Olympic committees. Based on the indications of the WHO, we adjust for any adaptations of the organization and the influxes of the masses at times like this. But we have a unique opportunity, to do in so that Tokyo 2020 is the festival of mankind, the symbol of the resilience and the overcoming of the coronavirus. Imagine what a powerful signal of hope for the world would be this Olympiad: the Olympic flame can be the light at the bottom of the darkness of this tunnel in which humanity now finds itself in. " The IOC president Thomas Bach writes in a letter addressed to all the national Olympic committees that arrives in the aftermath of the declarations of n.1 of the Tokyo 2020 organizing committee, Yoshiro Mori, according to which the Games next year could be canceled if the pandemic is not under control.
