We all know that in sports, passive/agressive manners are the way to rule a supposed to be "soft power". This is what the United States, Russia and China do, not only with doping.

The World Table Tennis is showing the passive/agressive behavior of China, giving almost all the tournaments organizations to BRICS country, with the major tournaments being held in Singapore, Durban, Goa, Macao, or XinXiang.

All those countries are neutral when it comes to talk about the Ukraine invasion. In other words, they don't care for the ukrainian civilians killed by Russia.

The sponsors and partners of that organization are, obviously, chinese companies only !

This week, the south african organization of the World Table Tennis Championships held in Durban is showing its worst face with a clear bad signal for the european and western broadcasters (time-lag between image and sound, blurred cameras, ridiculous tiny playgrounds with poor equipments) , referees not being fair when it comes to judge litigious situations any time it's a chinese athlete playing against a western one. Eugene Wang (Canada) or the Lebrun brothers double pair coached by Natanael Molin (France) have seen the worst refereeing possible done to favor China at ANY cost. And it's only the 4th days of the world's most important tournament in this sport after the Olympics !

Sports should not be ruled by foreign policies, by politics ! The German Table Tennis (DTTB) Association already knew years ago something was wrong with the WTT ruled by the Chinese National Team chairman Liu Guoliang ! It's a clear conflict of interest driven by chinese authorities ! you simply cannot put the same guy at the head of a national team and at the same at the head of the world organization to rule the competitions. And worst of it all, Lui Guoliang is also the ITTF vice-president now !

Vote for the dissolution of the WTT ! no politics in sports !
