North Korea was formally suspended from the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics by the IOC on Wednesday as punishment for refusing to send a team to the Tokyo Games citing the COVID-19 pandemic. The IOC (International Olympic Committee) president Thomas Bach said the North Korean national Olympic body will also now forfeit money that was due from the previous Olympics.
