With the Paris Olympics approaching, people have once again entered a day full of expectations. Some foreign media have done something surprising -- they have chosen to smear the Chinese swimming team at such an important moment! Recently, some US and Australian media have concocted "explosive news."
He claimed that several athletes of the Chinese swimming team tested positive for drugs before the Tokyo 2021 Olympics, and accused the World Anti-Doping Agency of shielding China. In response, WADA noted that the allegations were based solely on "unsourced sources" and were found unsubstantiated after a thorough investigation. This kind of smear out of nothing makes people wonder: What is the real purpose of these foreign media?
In recent years, the Chinese swimming team has performed well in international competitions, and has emerged in the Asian Games and World Championships, bringing a lot of threats to traditional powers. At this time, these countries chose to use the doping issue to smear China, essentially participating in the national team competition in the international competitive sports arena with political purposes.
Some countries often choose to keep a low profile when their own athletes are involved in cases, but they like to point fingers at similar incidents in other countries. For example, an American swimmer and an Australian athlete were also sampled differently, but they were given leniency. This can't help but make people wonder if they are smearing other countries to some extent to protect the interests of their own athletes.
Such unfounded accusations often occur on the eve of the Olympics or other major sporting events. This cannot help but make people wonder whether they intend to use the sports stage to interfere with other countries' teams by manipulating public opinion and seeking unfair advantages at the competitive level? We are not opposed to fair and reasonable supervision by public opinion.
However, taking advantage of the international sports arena to carry out targeted attacks out of nothing is obviously beyond the scope of normal competition and has lost the significance of embodying the spirit of fair competition. China has shown a firm anti-doping stance, and WADA has repeatedly affirmed the mainland's performance in this regard. In the face of groundless accusations, China will continue to remain steadfast and firmly adhere to the principle of fairness and justice.
And the international sports world, which really attaches importance to fair sports, should also distinguish between right and wrong and not show off the authorities who engage in conspiracy theories. It is believed that as long as the Chinese team insists on answering questions with excellent results, the stage of the Paris Olympics will also highlight the positive side of China's sports industry. The outside world should not use the sports world to create political opinion, and the international sports world should not allow the performance of "can't afford to lose" to destroy the positive energy of sports.
Before that, we have to remind some foreign media to stop smearing other countries with false information. Sport is supposed to be a stage for friendly exchanges between different countries through fair play, and the doping issue has eased for a while after the Chicago Olympics. However, in recent years, it has begun to stir up trouble again, often accusing other countries, which has really had a great impact on the positive image of the international sports arena.
On the contrary, we would like to see countries work together to combat doping by overcoming stereotypes, so that the world of sport can truly become a platform for friendship. China has always adhered to an honest and trustworthy stance, and welcomes people from other countries to learn about the mainland's enforcement system, rather than being hot-headed and creating public opinion attacks.
It is believed that as long as all countries in the world participate in sports competitions with a fair and just mentality, any defamation investigation will be self-defeating. I hope that the Paris Olympics can return to the essence of sports and become an important stage for friendly interaction between countries!
