Rio 2016 do not plan to stop political protests at Paralympic Closing Ceremony

Rio 2016 does not intend to take any special measures to prevent political manifestations during the Closing Ceremony of the Paralympic Games here at the Maracanã on Sunday (September 18), despite a representative of Belarus' delegation being reprimanded for carrying a Russian flag during the Opening Ceremony as a gesture of solidarity with the banned nation.
