Between the war in Ukraine, which began almost two years ago to the day, and the conflict between Israel and Hamas, the Paris Games will not take place in a relaxed international context. While neutrality is an important value of the Olympic movement, it is difficult, if not impossible, to leave geopolitics at the stadium door once the cauldron is lit. Since their rebirth at the end of the 19th century under the leadership of Pierre de Coubertin, the Games have been deeply marked by the world around them.
Kevin Veyssiereexpert in sport and geopolitics, and Armand de Rendingerspecialist in the Olympics, will be our guests.
Hugo Moissonnier will meet you at 4:10 p.m., universal time!
