LONDON (Reuters) – Britain has yet to take a decision on whether or not authorities representatives will attend the Beijing Winter Olympics, a spokesman for Prime Minister Boris Johnson mentioned on Tuesday, after the United States introduced a boycott.

“A decision has not been made on HMG (Her Majesty’s Government) attendance on the Beijing Olympics. We will set out our place sooner or later,” he advised reporters.
