They should be pleased they've been given an option to get out of it. The Olympics has turned in to a curse for any country that hosted it nowadays.

Problem they have is they have already wasted money building stuff.

What about the Carbon footprint of the games? Have we looked into this, since we are facing an extinction threat from CO2.

I suppose the impact would be less with no spectators travelling to watch the games. Still amazed they are pushing for them to happen this year. Would of thought they would be cancelled altogether. Pick up in 2024 fingers crossed.
