Bach to step down as IOC president next year

THOMAS Bach said he will step down as International Olympic Committee (IOC) president when his second term expires in 2025 – not seeking another one for which the Olympic Charter would have to be changed.

Bach made the announcement at the IOC Session on the penultimate day of the Paris Olympics, saying the Olympic Movement is “best served with a change of leadership”.
