The Tokyo Olympic organizing committee on Thursday appointed Seiko Hashimoto, one of Japan’s two female cabinet ministers, to replace the previous leader, Yoshiro Mori, who resigned last week after making sexist remarks, The New York Times reports.
Seiko Hashimoto is Japan’s former minister for the Olympics and Paralympics.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, Tokyo 2020 was postponed for a year and will be held from July 23 to August 8, 2021. Currently, Armenia has four Olympic passes, including in Greco-Roman wrestling (Karapet Chalyan, 77 kg, Artur Aleksanyan, 97 kg), one in gymnastics (Artur Davtyan) and one in boxing (Koryun Soghomonyan, 52 kg).
