The US recently announced a diplomatic boycott of the 2022 Winter Olympic Games in Beijing, China. Several other countries have followed suit. We asked Dr. Mark Thomas, assistant professor of political science at La Salle University to come on the podcast to explain what it means to diplomatically boycott the games, how many times it's happened before, and what, if anything these actions are going to accomplish in China.
