Which Asian countries will not participate in the Hangzhou Asian Games?

Six countries in Asia are not members of the Olympic Council of Asia, so they will not participate in the Asian Games. These six countries are Turkey, Israel, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia and Cyprus.

Although these six countries are geographically Asian countries, most of them consider themselves European countries, not Asian countries. This mainly involves their historical and cultural traditions and geopolitical cognition. For example, although Turkey is located on the western edge of the Asian continent, it considers itself a European country and its political and economic system is more biased towards Europe.

Similarly, countries such as Israel and Cyprus also regard themselves as European countries. In addition, there are political and economic reasons, which may also lead these six countries not to participate in or actively participate in Asian sports events and organizations. For example, Armenia and Azerbaijan have territorial disputes, which may restrict sports exchanges between the two countries.

Similarly, the war broke out in Georgia, which affected the development of sports in that country to some extent, and then affected its participation in sports events and organizations in Asia.
