The name may give it away \u2014 the 2020 Olympic Games should have happened in, well, <\/strong>2020.<\/strong> If it weren\u2019t for covid-19, the event would have kicked off on 24 July and run until 9 August, but the Japanese government made the decision relatively early on in the pandemic to postpone the championship to 2021. In March of last year, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and then-Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe decided to reschedule<\/a> the Olympics to the summer of 2021. In hindsight, that decision was absolutely necessary. At the time, it was a major disappointment \u2014 not least because of the USD 32-41 bn Japan was estimated<\/a> to have invested in preparing for the Games, including constructing venues and expanding hotels.<\/p>\n

Cancelling the Olympic Games isn\u2019t unheard of \u2014 but postponing it is.<\/strong> This is the first time ever the Olympics has been postponed, and the first ever disruption that wasn\u2019t caused by a war. Previous cancellations have only happened during the world wars<\/a>: the Summer Olympics were canceled in 1916, 1940, and 1944, while the Winter Olympics were canceled in 1940 and 1944.<\/p>\n

The postponement decision indicated that the Games would be held \u201cno later than\u201d the summer of 2021, but that\u2019s not stopping calls to push it again<\/strong> as Japan continues to struggle with putting a lid on its covid-19 outbreak. The country is currently battling a fourth wave, leading it to put major cities \u2014 including Tokyo itself \u2014 under states of emergency<\/a>, according to NPR<\/a>. A poll out this month showed that more than 80% of Japanese people are against holding the Games this year while a popular petition garnered 350k signatures<\/a> before organizers submitted it to the IOC and the governor of Tokyo last month.<\/p>\n

Whatever happens, the usual crowds won\u2019t be there:<\/strong> It was long suspected that the 2020 Olympics will be off limits to international visitors. Even with successful vaccine rollouts in some parts of the world, the trajectory of the global pandemic is still far from certain, and Japanese authorities in March banned<\/a> foreign spectators from attending the Games.<\/p>\n

And now even locals may be banned, making the 2020 games an entirely <\/strong>behind-closed-doors event:<\/strong> The Tokyo Olympic organizing committee has delayed<\/a> making a decision on whether spectators can attend events until the state of emergency is lifted on 20 June \u2014 a month before the opening ceremony takes place.<\/p>\n

So far, the organizers have held firm<\/strong>: The organizing committee, the Japanese government and the International Olympic Committee have insisted that the event will go ahead, with senior IOC member Richard Pound telling the Evening Standard<\/a> last month that only \u201cArmageddon\u201d would stop the Games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
