“I hope that the new Minister of Sports, well established in the organization of the Games from the start, will not forget us“, declares para-cyclist Marie Patouillet, Thursday December 26 on franceinfo, when she has just been crowned champion of French para-sport champions by the L'Équipe group.
“It is difficult to see the direction of the legacy of these Games“, regrets the para-cyclist, because of “the political universe since the end of the games” who is “pretty crazy“. “The results are a little mixed“, on the accessibility of infrastructures or even taking into account the handicap of para-athletes, she believes.
Marie Barsacq, previously in charge of the legacy aspect of the Games Organizing Committee, was appointed Minister of Sports, Youth and Community Life on Monday December 23 in the government of François Bayrou.
