Tokyo 2020 Olympics organisers said on Tuesday that they have “no Plan B” if the games were to be postponed again due to coronavirus pandemic
Masa Takaya, a spokesman, said organisers assume the Olympics will open on July 23, 2021. The Paralympics follow on August 24.
Those dates were set last month by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and Japanese officials after the coronavirus pandemic made it clear the Olympics could not be held as scheduled this summer.
We are working toward the new goal, Takaya said, speaking in English on a teleconference call with journalists.
