Controversial athletes Declaration approved
The IOC Assembly agreed to adopt the controversial athlete’s Declaration.

The views of more than 4200 athletes from 190 countries had been taken into account.
Several national athletes associations had not prompted the IOC to adopt the Declaration. “We are not convinced that the voice of athletes has been adequately searched for”, it was the part of the critics, including the athletes, associations from the USA, Canada, the UK and Germany. The broad mass of professional athletes had not been consulted. In addition, the statement does not give the athletes sufficient protection, it was said in the Letter to IOC President Thomas Bach.
