The hosting of international events was a major drive by government entities, especially the local government communities; it was not just a sporting activity, but he was very sympathetic to Mr Kasper’s views, and maybe WADA needed to listen to these; he was not conversant with the mountain and skiing situation, but he was conversant with tugof-war.
Il ne s’agit pas seulement d’activités sportives, mais il est très sensible aux arguments de M. Kasper et l’AMA devrait peut-être en tenir compte. Il n’est pas très au fait de la question des montagnes et du ski, mais il l’est pour ce qui est du tir à la corde.
