They just love hosting the olympics in places with high tension, with Berlin in WWII, the USSR during the Cold War, then in Sochi during tension between the US and Russia, and twice in the Korean Peninsula during conflict there

[@derwestphale]

The Olympics were hosted in 1936 in Berlin, WW2 started at 1939 and the US joined the war in 1941

[@figueroacadenaalexissebast5408]

I think it may be a strategy to divulge a sense of peace in the population of those countries, after all, most governments are crippled when the population is against its decisions.

[@mohammadfaizanakhtar8380]

yes 2020 olympics when Covid-19 is present.. they should think about it before deciding.

You do realise that the USSR was as much of a 'place with high tension' as the US was during the cold war, right?

Nice vid. An important point to mention was that in late-2016, South Koreans impeached their right-wing president, Park Geun Hye, who was always antagonistic toward North Korea. They then elected a more left-wing leader in Moon Jae In who was more for peace dialogue with North Korea. This has had a bigger impact on SK/NK relations than anything related to Donald Trump.

Here is some advice that has been tried and tested over the years: If you're a superpower and you agree to a "temporary agreement" with your superpower rival, it always ends up being permanent (Germany, Korea, spheres of influence in Europe) The only one that they actually kept their word on was Austria, which had been occupied after WW2 but both superpowers backed out and let it be neutral.
