English transcript

I feel heartbroken about what's happened in

the United States... ...when it, you know, I'm

pretty sure you're referencing ICE and some

of the protests and things like that. Uh, I

think that as a country, we need to focus on

respecting everybody's rights... ...and uh,

making sure that we're treating our citizens,

as well as anybody, with love and respect. And

uh, I hope that when people look at athletes

compete in the Olympics, they realize that...

...that's the America that we're trying to represent.

It brings up mixed emotions to represent the

US right now, I think. Um, it's a little hard.

Um, there's obviously a lot going on that I'm

not the biggest fan of... ...and I think a lot

of people aren't. If it aligns with my moral

values, um, I feel like I'm representing it.

Uh, just 'cause I'm wearing the flag doesn't

mean I represent everything that's going on

in the US. Um, so yeah, I just kinda wanna do

it for my friends and my family and the people

that supported me getting here.
