Beijing, 29 Jan (Xinhua) -- Uruguay is one of the most distant countries from China, but thousands of mountains and rivers cannot stop all sectors of Uruguay from paying attention to and supporting China's hosting of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics. As the Winter Olympics approach, the Uruguayan government and people are increasingly enthusiastic about the Beijing Winter Olympics. A few days ago, Uruguayan Foreign Minister Bustilo wished the Beijing Winter Olympics a complete success, saying that although Uruguayan athletes failed to qualify, the Uruguayan people still pay close attention to and eagerly look forward to China hosting a perfect Winter Olympic event. The president of the Uruguayan Olympic Committee and honorary member of the International Olympic Committee, Maglione, also told the media that China's successful hosting of the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in Beijing has demonstrated its strong ability to host major international sports events. It is believed that the Beijing Winter Olympics will also become a great Olympic event, fully embodying the Olympic spirit of unity and peace. The preparations for this Winter Olympic Games uphold a serious and rigorous attitude and actively implement various epidemic prevention measures, which can effectively protect the health of participating politicians and athletes.
