Responding to Mitt Romney's Proposed Olympic Boycott - a podcast by BU News Service

Utah Republican Senator Mitt Romney is saying the United States should partially boycott the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing in an Op-Ed published by the New York Times yesterday because of China’s oppression of Hong Kong, and internment of Muslim Uyghurs, which has been termed a genocide by human rights groups.

Romney argued that rather than forbid athletes from participating, the U.S. should economically and diplomatically boycott the games. WTBU Commentator Patrick Donnelly argues that while Romney is on the right path, he’s not hitting the mark fully.
