On the 2nd, the International Olympic Committee responded to the noise from the Chinese swimming team and the questions raised by some media and athletes about the gender of athletes participating in some Olympic events.
The Chinese swimming team has conducted more than 600 drug tests this year
During this Olympics, some people in the United States and the West have expressed envy and jealousy over the outstanding performance of Chinese swimmers who broke world records. In response to this, IOC spokesman Mark Adams said at a press conference on the 2nd: “The (Chinese) swimming team was the team that received the most doping tests at the Paris Olympics. Since January, the team has received more than 600 tests. So they have undergone comprehensive testing.”
Responding to gender controversy: Passports and history are the basis
In response to questions raised by some media and athletes about the gender of athletes in some Olympic events, IOC spokesman Mark Adams responded on the 2nd. He said, ” Everyone has the right to engage in sports without discrimination. All athletes participating in the Paris Olympic boxing competition must abide by the eligibility rules and entry regulations of the competition. … As in previous Olympic boxing competitions, the gender and age of athletes are based on their passports. ” Previously, AFP and other media had paid attention to the fact that an Italian female boxer was defeated 46 seconds into the match when she encountered her Algerian opponent Khalif. She bled and cried on the spot, saying that she “didn’t hurt so much” when fighting with men before. It is reported that Khalif and a player from a certain region in Asia were disqualified from participating in the 2023 World Championships, but were allowed to participate in the Paris women’s boxing competition this time.
