The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has given Switzerland until 2027 to answer the remaining questions regarding the Winter Olympic Games in the so-called privileged dialogue. What initially sounds like a rejection or postponement is actually an opportunity: now we can take a closer look at whether the IOC is really serious about turning away from gigantism and delusions of grandeur.
We will be able to see up close how the men of the Olympic rings will deal with the French in the coming years, who have actually won the contract for 2030. IOC President Thomas Bach and his colleagues, who have never been candidates for a sympathy or credibility award in recent years, promise sustainable games. If it turns out that the new idea of an Olympic Games is just old wine in new bottles, we will say loud and clear: No, thank you! And exit the application process. In short: the IOC is under observation.
For the Swiss Olympic friends around the Swiss Olympic and winter sports associations, the extra deadline offers a new opportunity. The one who can convince the country’s critics and skeptics that the Winter Games can be hosted in Switzerland without putting too much pressure on taxpayers, the environment and infrastructure. Maybe it’s not a bad thing if this discussion can be had in peace. Even though some sports fans may be a little sad that the 2030 Olympics didn’t happen.
