Good for them. They've been there for over 450 years, it should be on the Olympics to work around them IMO.

With respect, have the Olympics not bankrupted the host country in the last few decades? Why did Paris bid in the first place?

To probably as a display of power to the rest of the world.

Seems waste of money indeed
