I can see where the IOC is coming from. They've tried very hard to keep those kinds of statements separate from the Olympics. The Argentinian government specifically told it's athletes not to comment about the Falklands Islands, and the IOC has gotten very forceful about athletes from Arab nations (Iran specifically) forfeiting matches against Israeli athletes. In their eyes, this situation is exactly what they want to avoid happening during the Olympics.
