HOC backs Budapest’s bid for hosting 2024 Olympics
Budapest, September 11 (MTI) – The Hungarian Olympic Committee (HOC) wholeheartedly supports the idea of the city of Budapest submitting a bid to host the Olympic Summer Games in 2024, HOC leader Zsolt Borkai said today.
“We have still much to do, and lots of major and minor details to be clarified before submitting the bid, but the intention is clear: Budapest would like to host the world’s top athletes in 2024,” he said.
Honorary HOC president Pal Schmitt said last Friday that the Hungarian capital would be ready to host the Olympics in 2024.
