OJ 2018: The North Korean threat during the Games? Martin Fourcade "fairly quiet on the subject"
Shipulin, Boe, Bjorndalen and even Kim Jong-un. Martin Fourcade is the boss and he is not afraid of anyone. Focusing on preparations for the start of the biathlon season, which will be marked by the Olympic Winter Games in Pyeongchang, South Korea, the multiple world champion in the discipline does not lend too much attention to the diplomatic tensions that could hypothetically degenerate between North Korea and the West (as the name suggests, South Korea is just below North Korea, so it's not far, so in terms of security it is average). Fourcade even assured Wednesday that he was "quite calm on the subject".
"I am thoroughly in my sports preparation. Athletes only have an eye on their preparation and trust the institutions to take action if there were any to take at the last moment. Today, for me, this is not the order of the day. "
Sports Minister Laura Flessel expressed concern last week. "If it gets worse and we do not manage to have a definite security, our French team would stay here," the minister explained.
Tensions are high in the region due to nuclear testing and intercontinental ballistic missile firing by Pyongyang and verbal escalation in the threats between the North Korean regime and the United States.
