International Olympic Committee
International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach comments
Rio Olympic Organizing Committee President Nuzman and International Olympic Committee President Bach have delivered speeches. Bach said: "These are wonderful Games, this is a wonderful city! These Games will leave a unique legacy for future generations. History will speak of Rio before the Games and Rio after the Games for the better." [5]
Bach began by thanking Brazil and the people of Rio de Janeiro in Portuguese: "Brazil, we love you, thank you for your hospitality. Despite these difficult times, Brazil has brought the world together with its zest for life. You have reason to be proud. These Games have proved to everyone that diversity is precious." [13]
Bach thanked the Rio Olympic volunteers for their hard work, and also thanked all the athletes who participated in the Olympic Games, "You have impressed the world with your outstanding performance and demonstrated the power of sport to connect the world." By being friendly and competitive, by living together in the Olympic Village, sending an important message of peace, that together we can go further, jump higher, and that diversity can make us stronger."

Bach defined it as "an extraordinary Olympic Games in an extraordinary city." The IOC president said: "We came to Brazil as guests, now we leave as your friends. You will always be in my heart.

Social evaluation
While there have been numerous reports of athletes, officials and even ordinary tourists being mugged during the Rio Olympics, Lochte and four other American swimmers falsely claimed to have been robbed by armed robbers. At the swimming center, the water in the diving pool and water polo pool turned green and became the focus of worldwide attention, but the reason was that the staff used the wrong medicine. Incidents of buses not being on time and ambulances going the wrong way kept popping up in the early days of the Games, but the problem was quickly resolved thanks to the efforts of the organizing committee. [13]
Despite the mistakes and flaws of the Rio Olympic Games, but in the arena, the athletes of various countries have handed out excellent answers, the legendary American swimmer Phelps won five gold MEDALS, the Jamaican flying man Bolt completed the miracle of three consecutive Olympic Games, and the new generation of Biles and Ledski also won four gold MEDALS. Also at the Rio Games, 10 teams from Vietnam, Tajikistan, Singapore, Puerto Rico, Kosovo, Jordan, Cote d 'Ivoire, Fiji, Bahrain and independent athletes won the first gold medal in Olympic history, and the Brazilian men's team also won the first-ever soccer gold medal for the host country. In terms of hardware, Rio was not perfect, but it was a different Olympics, a return to the roots of the Olympic Games, and, as Mr. Bach said, an "extraordinary" Olympics. [13]
