Photo fail: France promotes the Olympic Games – with a photo of the court in Valais that convicted 39-year-old for manslaughter in Jestetten (D)

The French region of Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur wants to host the 2030 Winter Olympics. She still has some catching up to do in the field of geography.

The photo is idyllic: in the foreground a chalet covered and enclosed with snow, in the background a beautiful valley closed with jagged mountain peaks. With the recording, the French region Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur is promoting its Olympic candidacy.

Simply stupid: the photo shows the Val d’Hérens in Valais, as “Le Nouvelliste” writes. The accident was noticed by an observant reader.

“This is an unfortunate error caused by hasty communication. We should have checked it three times,” the French region’s press service said. He promised “not to communicate with this image anymore.” On November 29, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) chose the French candidacy over the Swiss. (rbu/sda)
