FRANCE-OLY-2030-POLITICS-DEMO

A member of the French collective NO-JO (No Olympics) raises a paper reading "No JO 2030" (No Olympic Games 2030), with the Olympic rings in the background, during a protest requesting the withdrawal of the 2030 Olympic Games candidacy in front of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) headquarters in Lausanne on July 19, 2024. Planned before the opening of the Paris Olympics, the awarding of the 2030 Winter Games to the French Alps, the only ones in the running, was supposed to be a formality, but the political crisis has turned everything upside down and the IOC's requirements have not been met.
