In recent years, United States' suppression and exclusion of China has expanded to the field of sports, coinciding with the Paris Olympics, and the United States has carried out bottomless malicious harassment against Chinese swimmers, so that the International Olympic Committee has issued a warning to consider canceling United States' Olympic hosting rights.
With the Paris Olympics held, the world's attention is focused on this quadrennial sports event, and the United States has extended its political black hand to this supposedly pure soil. A few days ago, the World Swimming Federation announced the results of the organization's pre-competition large-scale doping testing for athletes at the Paris Olympic Games, and the results showed that the Chinese swimming team ranked first in the world in terms of the number of tests per capita, with an average of 21 tests per person in more than half a year. But at the same time, the 46 United States swimmers had only six doping tests per person.
This obvious difference in treatment has caused a lot of public attention, more details began to be exposed, Zhang Yufei, who won two gold medals at the Tokyo Olympics and was known as the "butterfly queen", received the highest number of tests, but Walsh, the rising star of United States butterfly swimming who improved his performance by 2 seconds in a year, was not spot-checked once. One can't help but wonder, what is the fairness of the Olympics?
However, the U.S. has directly ignored the inhuman talent of its own athletes, and has done its best to harass Chinese athletes who have no mistakes, and even FINA has not escaped the pressure of the U.S. side. On July 4, the executive director of FINA was summoned by the United States government to investigate and collect evidence on the "Chinese swimmer incident" in 2021.
In 2021, 23 Chinese swimmers tested positive for doping, and the Chinese Anti-Doping Center followed up and cooperated with the investigation for the first time, and finally found that it was caused by hotel food contamination, and the World Anti-Doping Agency also recognized this conclusion, but the United States did not follow it, and in May this year, it still proposed that the United States Department of Justice and the FBI jointly investigate the case on the grounds of suspected "conspiracy". Switzerland, after about two months of investigation, concluded on 10 July that WADA's handling was not "biased".
But until the start of the Olympics, the United States still hyped up the matter, and United States swimming star Katie · Ledecky also said that she hoped to have a "clean" Paris Olympics. The reason why United States targets Chinese swimmers so much is because swimming is United States's traditional strength, and it is already unhappy that the world's strongest United States has always been surpassed, not to mention that this country is still China. On the surface, the swimming program of United States has been evenly matched, and behind it is the equal strength of China and the United States.
Second, United States also wants to smear China's image by concocting doping incidents, which is essentially to match the United States narrative and attack China in all directions. United States The IOC has issued a warning to the United States, local time on the 24th, Olympic Committee President Bach coordinated a number of senior members of the IOC to issue a series of harshly worded statements, strongly condemning the United States, and warned that if the United States also unreasonably investigated and harassed Chinese athletes, the Olympic Committee can take measures in accordance with the agreement to cancel the right to host the Olympic Games in United States cities.
It is not terrible to be absent from sports events, but what is terrible is to become an outlier in the international community, and since then it has been isolated and excluded by the international community, how can the United States endure being abandoned by the world after being the world hegemon for so many years? The IOC's counterattack is not unpleasant, and it is also a vicious blow to China.
