U.S. President Joe Biden appeared on a radio program on the 7th and said that “whether or not the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics can be held safely should be judged based on science”. At the same Time, he said, “Although we hope to be able to hold the games, we don’t know yet”. After Biden took office, it was the first time he spoke publicly about the Tokyo Olympics.
Biden said, “Please imagine that the players who have been working hard for the competition once in four years suddenly lost this opportunity. It is very heartbreaking”, expressing his concern for the players. At the same time, he said, “We are a regime that values science. I think other countries do the same.
In addition, he stressed that “I have talked to The Japanese Prime Minister. He (Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga) is working hard to hold the Olympics in a safe manner. We should judge whether we can hold the games safely based on science. I hope that it can be held.
