Governor Koike announced that he would be absent from the quadripartite talks, as President Mori said: “Resignation is inevitable.”
It is a remarkable step over President Mori of the Tokyo Organizing Committee for the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Governor Koike of Tokyo has announced his intention to absent himself from the meeting with the IOC, which will also be attended by President Mori. Some people within the government and the ruling party are beginning to say that President Mori’s resignation is inevitable.
“I don’t think I’m attending because I don’t think the four-way talks are very positive at the moment,” (Governor Yuriko Koike, Tokyo).
Governor Koike has indicated that he will be absent from the quadripartite talks scheduled for the 17th of this month, in which IOC Presidents Bach and Yoshiro Mori will participate. With Mr. Mori’s statements in mind, he says: “It will not be a positive transmission.”
Mr. Koike has been cooperating with President Mori by maintaining a “subtle distance”, but it can be said that this absence announcement is a clear manifestation of his intention to signal “NO” to Mr. Mori. The organizing committee executives are also confused.
“Governor Koike says it will not come out. The contractor for the Olympic Games is Tokyo”
Meanwhile, at the Diet, the opposition party urged the government to urge Mr. Mori to resign as chairman of the board of the organizing committee to be held on the 12th.
“Yesterday, Prime Minister Suga said: ‘This (the advancement and withdrawal of President Mori) is not my decision, but the decision of the Organizing Committee,’ so the Commissioner of the Sports Agency, who participates in the Organizing Committee. This is very important. You say so. ” (Member of the House of Representatives, Masato Imai, Constitutional Democratic Party)
“From my point of view, I have no intention of suppressing or encouraging Mr. Murofushi to speak,” said Koichi Hagiuda, Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.
The government reiterates the idea that the Organizing Committee should decide the advancement and retirement of Mr. Mori. However, the situation surrounding Mr. Mori is becoming more serious by the day, as the IOC (International Olympic Committee), which initially stated that “this problem has been solved”, reiterated that “the statements are completely inappropriate. “.
