TOKYO -- The Tokyo Organizing Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games has reached basic agreements with all 68 domestic sponsors on additional support money needed due to the one-year postponement to next summer as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
"We cannot be too grateful," committee head Yoshiro Mori said at a news conference in Tokyo on Thursday. "Though there should be lots of debate in-house, I believe they will continue to support us, as they accept the huge significance" of hosting the events, the former Japanese prime minister added.
