"The IOC will continue to work to ensure that the Games take place without discrimination," Rogge added. "We would oppose, with all our might, any movement that threatens this principle."

Un citāts no An open letter to David Cameron and the IOC by Stephen Fry

Be brave enough to live up to the oaths and protocols of your movement, which I remind you of verbatim below.

Rule 4 Cooperate with the competent public or private organisations and authorities in the endeavour to place sport at the service of humanity and thereby to promote peace

Rule 6: Act against any form of discrimination affecting the Olympic Movement

Rule 15 Encourage and support initiatives blending sport with culture and education

Un, ko vispār nozīmē tāda vēlamības izteiksme "mustn't affect Sochi", ja tas ir fucking affecting Sochi right this moment. Un kāpēc mustn't? Tāpēc, ka jātirgojas ar principiem visu to interešu vārdā, ko Frajs savā vēstulē uzskaitījis. Tāpat kā velamības izteiksmē ir arī "We would oppose, with all our might..." Caurspīdīgi skumji.
