    Tokyo, Mar 30 (EFE).- The Tokyo Olympic Games are under a strained situation after deciding to go with its "bubble" idea without an audience from outside Japan.Tokyo 2020 is now one year after the new dates of the event were set and four months before the actual event begins. (Camera: MARÍA ROLDÁN). B-ROLL OF THE OLYMPIC RINGS MONUMENT AND THE NATIONAL STADIUM IN TOKYO, JAPAN. SOUND BITES: KEIKO OGIWARA; KEIKO HASHIMOTO AND SHELLY ANIBA (IN JAPANESE).TRANSLATIONS:1. KEIKO OGIWARA- Many people have made a lot of effort so far. For my part, I want to go see them, although I do not know if that is possible during this time of Covid. But the athletes and also the others involved have made a lot of effort and I want the games to still be held for them.2. KEIKO HASHIMOTO:- If you watch the press, you will see the pessimism. But I think that once the Games start, the atmosphere will become (more) encouraging, no matter how much they say. I believe that the Covid situation will be more controlled.3. SHELLY ANIBA:- I think the Olympics should continue. I'm a history teacher, so I think it's very important just because of the symbolism of how they unite the world. It seems fine to me (that the games go) without spectators. I actually had tickets, but I bought them through the US (store) so I can't use them. But I have friends who can still go because they bought them through a Japanese store. That is why I came to the museum today, because I love the Olympics.
