Hashimoto: Tokyo Paralympics Could Still See Some Fans
TOKYO Tokyo Olympic organizers are holding out hope that the Paralympic Games might allow some fans.
Organizers and the International Olympic Committee on Thursday banned all fans from Olympic venues in Tokyo and three neighboring prefectures because of surging COVID-19 cases.
A smattering of Olympic venues in outlying areas of Japan will allow some fans. Fans from abroad were banned several months ago as too risky.
Organizing committee President Seiko Hashimoto, speaking at a Friday briefing, said a decision on Paralympic fans would be made after the Olympics close on Aug. 8. The Paralympics open on Aug. 24 and will involve 4,400 athletes. The Olympics involve 11,000.
Exakt zwei Wochen vor der Eröffnungszeremonie der Olympischen Spiele hat die olympische Flamme Tokio erreicht.
Tokios Gouverneurin Yuriko Koike nahm das symbolträchtige Feuer am Freitag bei Regenwetter im Komazawa Olympic Park entgegen. Am Donnerstag hatten die Olympia-Organisatoren und die japanische Regierung angesichts steigender Corona-Infektionen entschieden, bei den Sommerspielen vom 23. Juli bis zum 8. August keine Zuschauer zuzulassen.
Der Fackellauf hatte im März begonnen und sollte Begeisterung für die Olympischen Spiele wecken, wurde aufgrund des Coronavirus jedoch an vielen Orten, einschließlich Tokio, von öffentlichen Straßen verbannt.
Die kleine Zeremonie am Freitagmorgen in einem südöstlichen Vorort der Hauptstadt fand unter Ausschluss von Zuschauern statt, nur einige Journalisten und Amtsträger waren zugelassen.
