Rizki Juniansyah Is Not Worried About The Security Darutat Threatening The 2024 Paris Olympics

JAKARTA - Indonesian lifter Rizki Juniansyah is not worried about the security emergency that has recently haunted the 2024 Paris Olympics.

The world's largest multi-event will take place from July 26 to August 11, 2024. The terror threat has recently continued to emerge.

Rizki said that regarding security, he did not disturb his mentality at all. In addition, he also believes that the host will prepare everything well.

"I didn't think about the (security threat). We just came there to focus on competing. I believe in the (secured security) of the host," said Rizki.

Security concerns in France have remained at the highest threat level since March 2024, stemming from an ISIS terrorist attack on a Russian concert building that killed 145 people.

The terrorist act also forced France to reorganize their security system. This is because most other European countries have helped increase terror alerts to a maximum level.

Earlier this month, French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin confirmed police in Paris managed to thwart two separate terror plans targeting the Olympics this summer.

"We have arrested people who might be planning and launching terrorist attacks," Darmanin said in an interview as quoted by LBC.

In mid-June 2024, France and Spain have worked together to hold anti-terror exercises. The training scenario involving the attackers is referred to as Operation Optimistic.

France plans to deploy around 20 thousand troops and more than 40 thousand police to secure the Olympics. In addition, they also have the support of around two thousand soldiers and police from other countries.
