THE US ENCOURAGES TO REJECT THE OLYMPIC GAMES IN SOCHI
The US Congress plans to call on the International Olympic Committee
to review the resolution concerning the conduction of Winter Olympic
Games in Sochi 2014.
According to `Interfax’, the reason for this step is obvious: the
Congress is displeased with `Russian invasion in Georgia’.
Senator Alison Svartz, who is to present the resolution plan to the
IOC, has declared that `The US is going to support Georgia as its ally
and friendly country; therefore, we will urge the Committee to change
the place of the Olympic Games in 2014.’
