’Russia excluded Then exclude Israel!’ - Protesters claim double standards ahead of 2024 Paris Olympics

’Russia excluded? Then exclude Israel!’ - Protesters claim double standards ahead of 2024 Paris Olympics Dozens of pro-Palestinian protesters rallied outside the 2024 Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games Organising Committee headquarters in the French capital on Tuesday, calling for Israel to be banned from the Summer Games over its actions in Gaza. The International Olympic Committee announced in March that Russian and Belarusian competitors would not be allowed to participate in the Opening Ceremony, having earlier ruled that they could take part in the sporting events but only as ’neutral’ athletes. French President Emmanuel Macron reportedly defended the participation of Israeli athletes under the Israeli flag, claiming that Israel was not “attacking“ but that it was “responding to a terrorist attack“.
