Parliamentary Question Time – Flexible Workplaces

“I see your question,” Estanguet said, which really meant, “I see your trap.”
“I don’t want to comment anything about Trump,” Estanguet said.
Estanguet and Paris continue to insist in public that they are interested only in 2024,
but Estanguet also made it clear on Monday — 100 days before the scheduled I. O.C.
But a dry and happy ending seems inevitable this time, even if Estanguet, now the co-president of the Paris bid for the 2024 Olympics, was essentially
bending over backward in his straight-back chair on Monday to avoid sounding triumphant in its contest with a rival campaign from Los Angeles.
Losing an Olympic bid at the wire is a traumatic experience,
and Estanguet was part of the Paris delegation in Singapore in July 2005 when Paris was beaten by only four votes by London on the final ballot for the 2012 Summer Games.
In the wake of President Trump’s decision last week to withdraw the United States from the 2015 Paris climate accord, Estanguet was asked by a reporter, who
did not expressly mention Trump, if a country with what he labeled blatant disregard for the environment should be allowed to host the Olympic Games.
“When we entered into the room for the final result, we were quite confident,
and then it was, waaaah, cold shower,” Estanguet said, shivering at the memory on Monday during lunch at Roland Garros Stadium with a small group of reporters.
A Jilted Paris Has Pined for the Olympics, but the Long Wait May End in 2024 –
PARIS — On a warm and sunny day at the French Open, Tony Estanguet was shivering.
“It’s important to our bid because it’s a well-recognized place internationally,” Estanguet said.
