Bulgaria stands a good chance to host the 2024 Winter Youth Olympics, but it has to solve the problem related to the modernization of the ski facilities in Vitosha Mountain, this country’s Minister of Youth and Sports Krasen Kralev said.  Legislative disorders impede the modernization of these sports facilities. Bulgaria cannot raise effectively its candidature for winter Olympics without solving these problems. The organization of a European or World Football Cup together with Greece, Romania and Serbia is the biggest sports project along with the organization of Olympic Games, Minister Kralev added. We must prepare well and choose one of the two sports events- the European Football Championship or the World Cup. We should make the decision until the end of 2019, Minister Krasen Kralev said.
