Economy requires, the budget of the Ministry of Sports could be cut by 33%. The president of the departmental Olympic and sports committee of Indre-et-Loire says he is “angry”, “after the enthusiasm of the Olympic and Paralympic Games, we do not deserve that” deplores Alain Jahan.
It is far from the enchanted parenthesis of the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Almost six months later, the budgetary threat is there: the Sports portfolio could be cut by 33%. More than 400 French athletes signed a petition, supported by Emmanuel Macron himself. “There is anger and disillusionment” confides Alain Jahan at the microphone of Ici Touraine.
“We didn't deserve that, says the president of the Departmental Olympic and Sports Committee, to make a 33% cut, few companies or associations can take up the challenge. You have to call a spade a spade: France is not a sporting country, we are sporting every four years. This is not how we expected the legacy of the Olympics.“The president of the CDOSF hopes for progress before the examination of the budget in the joint committee on January 30.
