Photo: Channel ZeroSince December 2024, Andrzej Duda has been trying to join the global Olympic Committee. However, as it turns out, this may be more hard than expected, and earlier arrangements may have ceased to apply.
A fewer months ago, there was news in public space that Andrzej Duda would like to become a associate of the global Olympic Committee. From his surroundings, it is not a rumor.
– The president doesn't want to be head of the global Olympic Committee. For the sake of clarity, he does not make any efforts, does not hold talks to replace president Thomas Bach in the outgoing seat of the IOC. But he would like to become a associate of the Committee after his word of office," says SportyFacts.
Duda has a problem.
Until now, the peculiar Election Commission was not even expected to consider the candidacy of the erstwhile President. Moreover, during the March session of the ICC in Greece, the subject of the appointment of another Pole as a associate of the ICC was not raised.
The problem with Duda may be that there are presently no people who could lobby for his candidacy. Radosław Piesiewicz is not well placed in global structures. – If any findings in this case were made – and that is doubtful – then they are alternatively obsolete. Andrzej Kraśnicki is dead and Thomas Bach has ceased to be the president of the ICC and has lost most of his influence. We have a fresh head of the MKOl who will want to refurbish the composition of the organization – said 1 of the people well-oriented in the meanders of the IKOl policy.
