The Global Times has learned that as the host country of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, China never plans to invite US and Western politicians who hype the "boycott" topic to attend the Games and experts said that their so-called boycott is nothing but self-deception.
Recently, some politicians in the US and Western countries have been hyping the "diplomatic boycott" of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, citing what they called human rights concerns.

Biden wants to out do Carter in every way possible.
I just don’t see what politicians have to do with the Olympic Games.
This is hilarious!
Pres. Biden: “We’re boycotting the games.”
China: “You can’t boycott the games because you we’re refusing to invite anyone who says they’re boycotting.”
Also China: “And the Olympics are going to be even better without you coming.”
“The success of the Beijing Games depends on the excellent performances of the athletes and the shining of the Olympic spirits. It has nothing to do with whether some anti-China politicians from the US or Western countries will attend or not, analysts said.
“They noted that the Beijing Olympic Games may be more extraordinary without these politicians who have done no good but to politicize the Games. The US and some Western politicians’ politicization of the Olympics is what the international community should boycott.”
Yes, China should boycott the boycott. Analysts said that.
