He just vanished as soon as it was quite clear that a "full" boycott (which was always their thrust on here) of Beijing 2022 was never going to happen. It was always clear. Quote

Brekkie Boy Posted February 26, 2022 Report Posted February 26, 2022 Condemning them for breaking the "Olympic Truce" doesn't exactly show the IOC in a great light either - kind of suggests they wouldn't care if it was outside the period of the Olympics/Paralympics. Makes it look like the truce is more about protecting the commercial interests around holding the games rather than promoting peace. 2 Quote
iceman530 Posted February 26, 2022 Report Posted February 26, 2022 I get the feeling the IOC and even Bach is actually big, big mad with Russia right now. Like irreparable damage in the relationship bad Quote
StefanMUC Posted February 26, 2022 Report Posted February 26, 2022 I'm sure silently they've been mad at Russia since 2014. But they've been in Putin's pockets so far. Let's see if something really meaningful happens soon. Quote
