Une hypothèse, émise dans une chronique du Point puis reprise dans le JDD, évoque une possible annulation des jeux olympiques de Paris, compte tenu du contexte politique. Il s’agit d’une fausse rumeur.

As of Wednesday evening, a column is put online on the Point website, appearing this Thursday, July 4. In it, the lawyer and essayist Nicolas Baverez evokes the reaction of the president of the International Olympic Committee, after the announcement of the dissolution.

He talks about the "strangement" supposedly by Thomas Bach. "He gave himself until mid-July to confirm, cancel, or postpone the Paris Games", can we read in the editorial, cited by France Info.

"False information"

Very quickly, Zoé Sagan's account ;rsquo;It’s official the Olympics will be canceled. The President of the IOC [International Olympic Committee] Thomas Bach has given himself until July 14 to cancel everything or postpone the event depending on the security situation in France after the legislative elections from hell.

The information from the Point is taken over by the JDD. But quickly, the two media returned to this assertion. And for good reason, the head of the IOC himself denied the rumors of cancellation.

The Organizing Committee for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games contacted the JDD in order to deny the "false information about a cancellation of the Paris Games", we can now read in the article in question .

On the IOC's official course against France, the IOC and its president, as well as the Olympic Games. This has no factual basis. The IOC President and the entire Olympic Movement look forward to an excellent Olympic Games Paris 2024, starting with the Opening Ceremony on July 26".
