Secretary-General calls for Observance of Olympic Truce for 2020 Olympic & Paralympic Games in Tokyo
Video message by António Guterres, Secretary-General of the United Nations, calling for the observance of the Olympic Truce for the 2020 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Tokyo.
In a few days, athletes from around the world will come together in Japan for the Olympic and Paralympic Games. They have had to overcome enormous obstacles to participate, in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic.
We need to show the same strength and solidarity in our efforts to bring peace to our world.
The Olympic Truce is a traditional call to silence the guns while the games proceed. People and nations can build on this temporary respite to establish lasting ceasefires and find paths towards sustainable peace.
Seeking peace and uniting around common goals is even more important this year, as we strive to end t...

Olympism in Action Forum - The Power of the Olympic Truce
Dating back to 776 BC and the Ancient Olympic Games, the Olympic Truce was announced before the Olympic Games. A call to a cessation of any hostilities, it was intended to ensure that the host city of the Olympic Games was able to organise the event in peace and ensure the safe passage of athletes and spectators taking part in the Games.
The Olympic Truce was revived by the United Nations Organisation in 1993. Even under the most tense and volatile of circumstances, the Olympic Truce reaffirms that the Olympic values of peace, solidarity and respect are as important across the world today as they were over 3,000 years ago, when the ancient Olympic Games first took place in Greece.
Taking the most recent inspiring example of the Olympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018, this session will h...

The draft resolution A/78/L.9 “Building a peaceful and better world through sport and the Olympic ideal” was adopted by recorded vote (118 in favor -0 against- 2 abstentions).
After the vote, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) President, Thomas Bach, and the Paris 2024 President, Tony Estanguet, addressed the media.
Thomas Bach said, “We warmly welcome and are very grateful for the overwhelming support of this Olympic Truce resolution by just two abstentions.”
Tony Estanguet said, “Our satisfaction…We want to really thank the states that have publicly expressed their support for the Games, the importance of the Games, and their role in society today. I think this is the most important for us: to feel that a vast majority of countries today want to engage in the Games' success and in the development of the Olympic and Paralympic Games for humanity.”
The IOC President also said, “We had hardly any time after World War Two, with so much confrontation, conflict, and wars that in such a time, this mission of the Olympic movement, of the Olympic Games is even more important than ever, and therefore, you know, we are really overwhelmed by the support expressed by the UN General Assembly.”
Dating back to the ancient Olympic Games in Olympia in 776 BC, the Olympic Truce aims to halt all hostilities, allowing the safe passage and participation of athletes and spectators for the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
The IOC revived the Olympic Truce in 1992, and is now introduced for every edition of the Games.
The draft resolution for the Olympic Truce for Paris 2024 was formally submitted to the Member States by the Government of France in close collaboration with the IOC, the International Paralympic Committee, and the Organising Committee.

The discussions between Xi and French President Emmanuel Macron focused on trade and international relations, marking the 60th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries.
However, Xi's visit was not without controversy, as students for a Free Tibet displayed a "Free Tibet" banner over his motorcade from a bridge in Paris, while Reporters Without Borders activists protested at the Arc de Triomphe.
"It must be recognized that the Chinese President is not like any other president, he is a press freedom predator. 119 journalists are detained by the Chinese regime," Deputy CEO of Reporters Without Borders, Thibaut Britton said.

Taking the most recent inspiring example of the Olympic Winter Games PyeongChang 2018, this session will highlight how sport and the values of Olympism have the power to unite a fractured world.

The Story of RMS Olympic: Titanic's forgotten twin
Hello All!
The RMS Olympic was a massive Olympic class liner and older sister of the infamous Titanic. She was crown jewel of the White Star Line and served an incredibly important role in history, even if she has (unfortunately) been forgotten by history today.

What happened to RMS Olympic after WW1?
RMS Olympic was the legendary ocean liner - and sister to the RMS Titanic - that served as a troopship for the British Royal Navvy during the first world war - but when the war was over and the guns were silent, what happened to the great ship? After HMHS Britannic was lost, Olympic was the sole surviving Olympic-class ocean liner and her owners, the White Star Line, had to work hard to ensure she remained a popular choice on the transatlantic service in the face of stiff competition from RMS Mauretania, RMS Aquitania and others.

RMS Olympic: Titanic's Unsinkable Sister
The Titanic's older sister, RMS Olympic had a long and colorful career with the White Star Line. Launched on October 20th, 1910, the Olympic was the largest ship in the world by far. The Olympic was a favorite Atlantic ocean liner long after the Titanic disaster, sailing for over two decades. She more than lived up to the dream envisioned by her builders and easily lived up to her nickname, Old Reliable.

RMS Olympic was the legendary ocean liner - and sister to the RMS Titanic - that served as a troopship for the British Royal Navvy during the first world war - but when the war was over and the guns were silent, what happened to the great ship? After HMHS Britannic was lost, Olympic was the sole surviving Olympic-class ocean liner and her owners, the White Star Line, had to work hard to ensure she remained a popular choice on the transatlantic service in the face of stiff competition from RMS Mauretania, RMS Aquitania and others.

The Titanic's older sister, RMS Olympic had a long and colorful career with the White Star Line. Launched on October 20th, 1910, the Olympic was the largest ship in the world by far. The Olympic was a favorite Atlantic ocean liner long after the Titanic disaster, sailing for over two decades. She more than lived up to the dream envisioned by her builders and easily lived up to her nickname, Old Reliable.
