IOC president has video call with China's Peng Shuai

The Hindu  

The International Olympics Committee said Sunday its president had had a 30-minute video call with Chinese tennis star Peng Shuai, as international pressure mounted for information about her wellbeing. RELATED | "Today, IOC President Thomas Bach held a video call with three-time Olympian Peng Shuai from China," the organisation said in a statement. "At the beginning of the 30-minute call, Peng Shuai thanked the IOC for its concern about her well-being," it said, adding that "she explained that she is safe and well, living at her home in Beijing, but would like to have her privacy respected at this time". The call ended, the statement said, with Bach inviting Peng "for a dinner once he arrives in Beijing next January, which she gladly accepted, and the two agreed to include Emma Terho and Li Lingwei".
