The IOC are fretting about the lack of progess in actually getting the basics ready in time for the Games, so they will agree to anything, like events in Fukushima. So much for a 'Tokyo' centred Games as originally promised. The whole thing is a shambles, an utter joke.
I can't wait to see the transport chaos when the Games actually start.
