Barcelona, 22 Mar The president of the Spanish Olympic Committee (COE), Alejandro Blanco, this Tuesday, at the request of the recommendations of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), ruled out the possibility of Madrid presenting a bid to host the 2036 Olympic Games In an interview with the radio station RAC1, Blanco encouraged the Spanish capital to “restart the road” to host a summer Olympic Games, although he stressed that “at this moment” his candidacy for the 2036 event “is not on the table at all”. “I have had several meetings with the mayor of Madrid talking about this issue and Madrid, without a doubt, is a city that should try to host the Olympic Games, but it will not be eligible for the 2036 Games,” said Blanco. He added: “We (the COE) when we talked to the IOC about the possibilities there were, they told us that the possibilities are winter. The games in Paris (2024), the Los Angeles (2028) and the Brisbane (2032) games are given and the recommendation they gave us for the 2036 games is that Madrid should not show up”. Blanco said that “everyone must have peace of mind” and that “the dream of Madrid must not disappear” to host the Olympic event in the future. “The commitment we have, and I am also very grateful to the mayor of Madrid, is that we resume high-level activities in Madrid to try in the future, not in 2036, to compete for the Games,” concluded the president of the COE. Madrid chose three consecutive times to host the 2012, 2016 and 2020 Olympic Games, which were awarded respectively to London, Rio de Janeiro and Tokyo.
