Original Title: Sports Review: A more united Olympics is the common expectation of the international community
Every December 20th is the International Human Unity Day. Since its establishment in 2005, the International Human Unity Day aims to raise public awareness of the importance of unity and remind governments to abide by their commitments in various international agreements. The Olympic Movement added “more unity” to its motto this year, which is obviously also pinned on this vision. Regardless of the angle of view, at a time when the new crown pneumonia epidemic is still raging around the world, a more united Olympics is the common expectation of the international community.
The original intention of the establishment of the International Day of Human Unity is to remind us of the importance of the results of international agreements on social development, including international conferences and multilateral agreements. As former UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said: International Human Solidarity Day highlights the importance of working together to tackle global challenges and achieve global development goals. Over the past decade or so, human society has encountered many challenges. Facts have proved that, whether it is the financial crisis or the raging epidemic, unity is the only magic weapon for mankind to overcome difficulties.
Unity has become a self-evident responsibility of the global community. On the eve of the Tokyo Olympics this year, the International Olympic Committee, which has more than 200 members, updated its Olympic motto for the first time in history, adding “more unity” to it. Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics and Paralympic Winter Games put forward the slogan “Together to the future”, which is in line with China’s “Building a community with a shared future for mankind” and demonstrates China’s role as a world power.
“Together to the future” is precisely calling for the world to be more united. International Olympic Committee President Bach said: “We organize the competition to unite the world. China respects the rights and interests of every participant. The Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee continues to fulfill its promises as they did in the Winter Olympics test competition. .”
The athletes are looking forward to the Beijing Winter Olympics. German ski jumping star Vogt, who just participated in the Winter Olympics test in Chongli, said: “I am very happy to be able to compete in China. The conditions of this venue are very good. I look forward to returning here to participate in the official Winter Olympics competitions soon. “The 23-year-old Campo, a member of the Australian cross-country ski team, is sprinting for a ticket to the Winter Olympics. He said: “The Olympics is about bringing people together. I am happy and confident to see that the world can still be held together in some way. I am very fortunate to be able to participate in it myself.”
Sergey Bubka, president of the Ukrainian Olympic Committee, also believes that the Beijing Winter Olympics will be a Winter Olympics full of expectations for the world. He said that in order to jointly cope with the challenges of the epidemic, people from all countries and regions need sports, and more need to be united.
Less than 50 days before the opening of the Beijing Winter Olympics, under the shadow of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, I believe that a more united Beijing Winter Olympics and Winter Paralympics will become another beam of hope that illuminates the way forward for the world.
