The French confused Tajikistan with Thailand - at the Olympics in Paris, the organisers showed the wrong flag: “At the Olympic Games in Paris, the flags of Tajikistan and Thailand were mixed up during the awards ceremony for the winners of the boxing tournament in the 92 kg weight category. Uzbekistan’s Lazizbek Mullajonov became the Olympic champion in that discipline, while Spain’s Emmanuel Reyes and Tajikistan’s Davlat Boltaev won bronze medals. Instead of the flag of Tajikistan, the flag of Thailand was raised at the awarding ceremony“ Source: Global News (EU, USA)
