Replying to a question about opinion on the state of preparations for the European football championships in Poland Drzewiecki-Minister stated that he had recently participated in a series of meetings, the organizer of the cities of Representatives.
"I can say that today in a better position, unlike in the beginning, is located in Warsaw, so the stadium is actually under construction, despite the fact that it all began in the end. The tender was successfully completed. The old stadium, turned the market is over, pick up trash, and now piled foundations, and is now done, everything is fine, and it seems that they will be ready in time. "he said to journalists.
He also praised the preparations in Gdansk, where - he said - detailed engineering 80% complete.
"I am confident in Gdansk, as it followed the example of Warsaw with the National Center for Sports closely and NCS-U, which is the Ministry of Sports and the company is probably a very good choice, because if I were to assess Wroclaw, there is another type of situation : they are constructions, but no detailed engineering. The attempt to "design and build" tender good idea, but I can not be sure if he would not postpone the construction of the stadium in Wroclaw at the end of six months. "The minister said Drzewiecki.
He noted that Poland is preparing for Euro 2012, as if the Games were to take place in six cities.
