Kosovo has taken the commitment to organize the 2030 Mediterranean Games, a very gigantic sports event, which requires great preparations in terms of human and infrastructural aspects.
Although there are still six years until the holding of this great sports activity, the volume of work and investments that must be done is very large, but even further, the institutions responsible for this have not started any concrete work on the ground, until they say that they are in preparation of the legal infrastructure as well as the master plan for the Mediterranean Games.
The Deputy Minister for Culture, Youth and Sports, Daulina Osmani, told KosovaPress that they are currently working on the Law on the Mediterranean Games, the creation of the Organizing Committee, as well as on the feasibility study for infrastructural investments.
The vast majority of these games will take place in Prishtina, so the deputy mayor of this municipality, Alban Zogaj, told KosovaPress that over the next four years, 50 million euros will be invested in the sports infrastructure in the capital, but also outside of it.
On the other hand, the president of the Kosovo Olympic Committee, Ismet Krasniqi, admits that the beginning of the preparations is not going to be easy at all, but in cooperation with the Ministry of Sports, they will do their best in this direction.
One of the most voluminous works will be the construction of the national stadium, work which still hasn’t started on the ground, but the Minister for Culture, Youth and Sports, Hajrulla Çeku tells KosovaPress that the construction will start in the second half of 2024.
Otherwise, Kosovo won the right to organize the 2030 Mediterranean Games at the General Assembly of the Mediterranean Games Committee on September 8 in Greece. /A.Bytyçi
