Unified Koreans open Winter Games in peace message

At PyeongChang the 2018 Winter Games open with a joint North South Korea team and a peace theme. IOC president Bach calls the moment emotional while Pence sits near Kim Jong Un’s sister as tensions linger over Russia’s doping ban and broader politics surrounding the games. 92 nations and roughly 3,000 athletes compete in 102 events as organizers press for a pro peace narrative amid nuclear concerns.

Optimism High As U S Team Arrives For Winter Games

The 244 member U S squad includes Shaun White Lindsey Vonn Mikaela Shiffrin and rising stars Nathan Chen and Chloe Kim. Team leader Alan Ashley says the mix offers a great opportunity while officials hope the Games ease North South tensions though analysts remain skeptical about any long term political impact. Pence and Fred Warmbier attended with Otto Warmbier’s family member nearby as impersonator acts drew attention before Yuna Kim lit the cauldron and fireworks closed the ceremony. Bach urged athletes to focus on competition as the Games begin.
