International Sport Events
- Some people believe that International sport events such as Olympic Games or World Championships have positive role in reduction political tensions between countries and stimulate patriotic emotions.
- Personally, I think that this question is a controversial one and is open for debate.
- It is a well-known fact that any military actions were forbidden during the Olympic Games in ancient Greece.
- Ancient people celebrated this event by competing in power and agility, expressing their sense of national patriotism.
- However, nowadays the rule to stop wars during the Olympic Games is not always abided.
- It can be illustrated by the National war in Ukraine in present days.
- The Ukrainians didn`t stop their war and sportsmen who participated the Olympic Games in Sochi were affected by terrible emotions about the war in their country.
- Overwhelming majority of Ukraine citizens couldn`t support their sportsmen because their patriotic emotions were directed to the war.
- This example clearly shows that the role of sport glory is significantly lower than the role of national contradictions.
- Additionally, popular sport events often cause wide-range fights between fans from opposite countries.
- Needless to say that a lot of innocent people suffer from fan`s fights and this point can also increase international tensions.
- On the other hand, International sport events unite people from the whole world despite any political contradictions which are temporary forgotten for that period of time.
- Taking all these points into consideration, I would say that the role of International sport events is rather insufficient in political sphere.
- Definitely, such kinds of events increase the sense of patriotism and glory, however sporting occasions more likely could enlarge International contradictions than reduce them.
