Decision Without Agreement

This phrase was coined by Tokyo Metropolitan Governor KOIKE Yuriko. The Tokyo Olympics is scheduled to be held in the summer of 2020, and due to the IOC’s countermeasures on extreme heat conditions, the marathon and walking race events have been relocated to Sapporo City, Hokkaido. This was decided without the agreement of the host city, Tokyo.
