Nazarbayev: We don't have to build a lot if Kazakhstan wins its bid to host Olympiad 2022

We have seen that your team is as multiethnic as your country is.
Kazakhstan is a home to all, Koreans and Belarusians.
What sports do you expect to win? Our athletes performed well at the Summer Olympic Games in London, therefore we have great expectations. But there are strong rivals in Sochi, such as Russia, the US, Norway, Austria, etc. We will not speak in advance, we will fight. We have Chimbulak, Medeu. We did every thing possible to let our sportsmen get ready for the Games. Moreover we will host the Winter Universiade in 2017 and we want put forward a bid to hold the Olympic Games 2022. We have all chances.
There is s a tradition to declare a truce to cease hostilities and conflicts during the Olympiad. Vladimir Putin replying the question what he would advise his guests out of the leaders of state and government he said "They are smart, let them decide themselves".
There is a good tradition. Let the Sochi Olympic Games play the same role. There are lots of such places in CIS, Ukraine, Syria, etc. The Olympic Games should lead to ending conflicts. May be it will lead to compromises, negotiations and ease confrontations. I would likeonce again to congratulate the President of Russia and the Russian people on such a breakthrough made in a short period of time. Wish you success and great victories!
