House Speaker Pelosi backs 2022 Olympics diplomatic boycott
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called Tuesday for a diplomatic boycott of the 2022 Beijing Olympics, citing human rights abuses by China's government. โWe cannot proceed as if nothing is wrong about the Olympics going to China,โ the California Democrat said during a joint video hearing of the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission and the Congressional-Executive Commission on China. Rather than advocating for a full boycott of next year's Winter Games, in which countries would keep their athletes away entirely and corporate sponsors would stay away, too, Pelosi instead said world leaders should not attend the competition because โof a genocide that is ongoing while youโre sitting there in your seats.โ
