A A nation allegedly attempting to kidnap its own athlete and another incensed at its political rival getting attention. For all the pretense that the Olympic Games are about sport and not politics, Tokyo 2020 has abruptly reminded us that such a divide is impossible. One of the most dramatic turns happened Sunday night, when Belarus sprinter Krystsina Tsimanouskaya sought the protection of Japanese police at Tokyo’s Haneda airport. Days before, she had complained on Instagram about how her country’s team was managed. That apparently prompted officials from Belarus to haul her to the airport and attempt to send her back home, despite being scheduled to compete the next day. She neither got on the plane nor turned up for her heat in the 200 meters.
