It is looking bleak for the paralympic games.
"Host countries typically help cover the costs of bringing athletes from around the world to the Games. But Paralympic officials now say grants from Brazil to help pay for that travel are overdue, potentially jeopardizing the ability of Paralympians in roughly 50 countries to make the trip."
