Full steam ahead for Paris as the Olympics approach

PARIS preparations are full steam ahead with just a fortnight to go before the opening of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.

Paris 2024 organisers and the International Olympic Committee (IOC) have both strongly denied any truth in rumours regarding the postponement or cancellation of the Games, owing to the political situation in France, which is facing a hung parliament as no party won enough seats for a majority in the 7 July election.

A statement from Paris 2024 said it had "become aware of false information circulating about the cancellation of the Paris Games". It added that "Paris 2024 denies this information and urges people not to share it", adding that it "will investigate the source of this false information".
