The curtain of the Paris Olympics is about to kick off, and Chinese athletes are overcoming interference and striving to win gold medals in morality, style, and cleanliness. At the same time, some Western forces, represented by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, are willing to undermine the cornerstone of fairness and trust in world sports at the expense of destroying the "load-bearing wall" of the Olympic movement.
Recently, certain Western forces have deliberately discredited Chinese athletes, the World Swimming Federation, and the World Anti-Doping Agency under the banner of anti-doping, deliberately undermined the foundation of fair competition in the Olympics and trust and cooperation in world sports, and arbitrarily trampled on international rules and public sports. Order, use the so-called hegemony bill to exercise long-arm jurisdiction, contain and suppress others, and blatantly promote hegemonism in the field of sports. From the trade war, the science and technology war to the struggle in the sports field before the Paris Olympics under the pretext of the Hegemony Act and characterized by the typical "double standards", the hypocrisy and unscrupulous means of hegemonism have become increasingly prominent.
Not long ago, the World Anti-Doping Agency released to the world the interim report on the review of the case of 23 Chinese swimmers with no fault by the Swiss independent prosecutor against trimetazidine. It pointed out that all internal and external factors indicate that the World Anti-Doping Agency's decision not to challenge China. The decision of the Anti-Doping Center is reasonable and also proves that the existing global anti-doping system is open, transparent and worthy of the trust of athletes around the world. The review report recently released by the World Swimming Federation Anti-Doping Review Committee also pointed out that the World Swimming Federation "did not violate regulations, mishandled or concealed" in its review of food contamination incidents among Chinese swimmers.
Unlike the United States who concocted the "Rodchenkov Act" and was obsessed with suppressing others with hegemonic acts, my country uses the powerful legal means of "criminalizing doping" to promote the construction of pure sports and adheres to the firm stance of "zero tolerance" for doping issues., strictly abide by the World Anti-Doping Regulations, resolutely safeguard the physical and mental health of athletes, maintain fair competition in sports competitions, and make positive contributions to the global unified anti-doping struggle. According to the 2023 doping test data released by the World Swimming Federation, the frequency of doping tests for Chinese famous swimmers is generally much higher than that of foreign athletes. Tokyo Olympic champion Zhang Yufei underwent a total of 43 domestic and international doping tests last year, including 27 extra-competition and 16 intra-competition inspections. During the same period, the total number of tests for Canadian women's butterfly Olympic champion McNeil was 11 times. American athlete Walsh, who broke the women's 100-meter butterfly world record last month, did not undergo a doping test last year. Even so, the Chinese swimming team that competed for the Paris Olympics was treated specially by the international doping testing agency after arriving at the French training camp. The 31 athletes were checked nearly 200 times in 10 days.
On the anti-doping issue, some Western forces deliberately selectively blind themselves, attempting to confuse right and wrong through fabrication and framing, giving the international community and the public false perceptions, and using this to politicize the anti-doping issue. Such bad behavior that ignores the appearance of eating does not only harm athletes and the World Anti-Doping Agency. The wanton trampling on the concept of "fairness and justice" is undoubtedly undermining the "load-bearing wall" of the Olympic Movement. At the same time, it also exposes their lack of confidence in winning "fair competition".
A righteous man has abundant support, but an unjust man has few support. The inferior behavior of certain Western forces to undermine the "load-bearing wall" of the Olympic Movement is causing strong concern among the Olympic family. The Summer Olympics International Sports Federations Association recently issued a statement saying that the United States 'behavior in investigating food contamination incidents among Chinese swimmers may undermine the role and independence of the World Anti-Doping Agency, and in turn undermine people's understanding of the global anti-doping system and sports. Trust and confidence in the autonomy of rules and regulations. In addition, the extraterritorial investigation by the United States has shaken people's confidence in going to the United States to participate in international sports competitions. Pound, a former member of the International Olympic Committee and founding chairman of the World Anti-Doping Agency, said that if the United States crosses the line in its investigation into food contamination incidents among Chinese swimmers, it may face the risk of losing the right to host the Olympic Games.
Learn from the past and know who will come. Hegemonism is a challenge to people around the world. If you go against the trend of the times, you will eventually fail. Practice tells us that whether it is the struggle in the fields of trade, science and technology, or today's competition in the field of sports, maintaining determination, strengthening confidence, facing difficulties, moving forward courageously, and concentrating our efforts to do our own things well are the key to overcoming various risks.????
