"The Japanese government has privately concluded that the Tokyo Olympics will have to be cancelled because of the coronavirus, and the focus is now on securing the Games for the city in the next available year, 2032"
"According to a senior member of the ruling coalition, there is agreement that the Games, already postponed a year, are doomed."

------------------

Öffentlich mag man das noch nicht zugeben. Insgesamt sind über 80% der Japaner gegen die Spiele. Die Krux ist natürlich das bereits verschwendete Geld

"The cancellation of the Olympics would be a financial disaster for Japan, which has spent at least $25 billion on preparations — three quarters of which was public money. The aim now is to maintain the façade of battling determinedly to go ahead in the hope that when they are inevitably cancelled the 2032 Games will be given to Tokyo out of sympathy."
