The body has appointed new members.<\/p>\n
Yunjong Won (Republic of Korea, bobsleigh) and Johanna Talih\u00e4rm (Estonia, biathlon) have been confirmed as IOC Members.<\/p>\n
The Session confirmed their election today, after which the new Members took the oath.<\/p>\n
The IOC Session elected the new Chair of the IOC AC, Pau Gasol S\u00e1ez, as an EB member to replace Emma Terho, who has completed her term.<\/p>\n
In addition, two other IOC AC members, Astrid Uhrenholdt Jacobsen and Hong Zhang, have concluded their terms on the AC and will therefore also finish their terms as IOC Members.<\/p>\n
At the end of the Games, the IOC\u2019s membership will therefore stand at 106, with 46 women and 60 men.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The body has appointed new members.
