PRAGUE — The deadly attacks in Paris won’t deter the French capital’s bid to host the 2024 Olympics.
Tony Estanguet, co-president of the Paris candidacy, said at first after the attacks “you forget about your business and your work and for some days we were not concerned about the bid.”
But Estanguet tells The Associated Press the team is now determined “more than ever” to secure the games, offering Parisians a chance to “share good moments, positive moments.”
Exactly a week after the attacks that killed 130, Estanguet was in Prague to attend the general assembly of European Olympic Committees.
