Thomas Bach: IOC god with a German diplomatic passport threatens the democratically elected German government

The IOC president announces that a German bid for the Olympics has no chance as long as Germany does not submit to the IOC demands and guarantee Vladimir Putin's state athletes full freedom of movement. The DOSB, just recently under SPD control, has already hired a former CDU politician.

If we are to believe the information provided by the German government, and if Thomas Bach has not voluntarily surrendered the last of his many diplomatic passports, then the 70-year-old IOC president, long-standing business lobbyist with numerous secret contracts and former FDP member, will continue to enjoy the many benefits of a German diplomatic passport until 17 August 2026. But perhaps Bach has already applied for and received one or more other passports. Who knows?

Samaranch or Coventry, that is the question. Coe was not only thwarted, his performance remained surprisingly poor, as if he himself had never believed in becoming IOC president. Lappartient, Watanabe, Eliasch and Feisal just don't want to come in last. The water level report.
