前国际奥委会主席、国际奥委会终身名誉主席萨马兰奇因心脏病发在西班牙巴塞罗那市一所医院去世，享年89岁。当地时间周四早晨，现任国际奥委会主席罗格和其他国际人士将出席一场送别仪式，萨马兰奇的葬礼将于当日下午六点在巴塞罗那大教堂进行，西班牙国王和王后也将出席。萨马兰奇在1980年至2001年间任国际奥委会主席，他被认为是继现代“奥运之父”法国人顾拜旦之后对奥林匹克贡献最大的人物。在萨马兰奇担任国际奥委会主席期间，国际奥委会成为全球成员最多的国际组织。奥运会也走出低谷，奥运赛场变得异彩纷呈。更主要的是，21年间萨马兰奇不断改革，体育商业化、奥运职业化等都是他的首创。[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 @ aJ)$A"*&0r[aFroG]
