The Tokyo Olympics were postponed from July 2020 to July 2021 last month because of the COVID-19 pandemic, marking the first time the Games have been postponed, so it makes sense that there is still some uncertainty surrounding the event.
"We are working toward a new goal," Tokyo Olympics Spokesman Masa Tayaka told reporters. "We don't have a B Plan."
Tayaka added that the assumption is for the Olympics to open on July 23, 2021, as the International Olympic Committee decided last month. The Paralympics are scheduled to begin on Aug.
