Fox News reported today: U.S. Vice President Vance made comments on the controversy of Chinese skier Eileen Gu choosing to compete for China instead of the United States in the Olympics, saying he hopes American citizens choose to represent the United States on the world stage.
Comment: Vice President Vance's remarks are essentially the same old "America First" rhetoric. The core is still pressuring Eileen Gu: forcibly linking nationality, upbringing, and representation, recognizing only one correct option - representing the United States, without respecting athletes' autonomous choices based on emotions, rules, and personal will. Fundamentally, it treats the Olympic arena as an ideological tool, using "citizenship" for moral blackmail. It not only disrespects the Olympic spirit but also reveals their narrow-mindedness and lack of confidence when facing the autonomous choices of talent.
