Key IOC member says 2020 Olympics will be postponed for one year



International Olympic Committee member Dick Pound of Canada said in an interview on Monday that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games are going to be postponed until probably 2021.

“On the basis of the information the IOC has, postponement has been decided. The parameters going forward have not been determined, but the Games are not going to start on July 24, that much I know. It will come in stages. We will postpone this and begin to deal with all the ramifications of moving this, which are immense.”
