International Olympic Committee president Thomas Bach announced Wednesday that North Korea’s national Olympic committee is suspended until the end of 2022. The Beijing Olympics are Feb. 4-20.
“They were in violation of the Olympic Charter, and did not fulfill their obligation as stated in the Olympic Charter to participate in the games of the Olympiad by sending athletes,” Bach said.
North Korea cited concerns over the COVID-19 pandemic when it announced in April that it would skip the Tokyo Olympics.
