Working hard to prepare the ground for the French Alps 2030, Michel Barnier spoke about the quest for president of OCOG in the columns of Le Monde. Five or six candidates are said to be in the race now that it is established that Martin Fourcade will not occupy the post. The date of February 18, the official birth of the organizing committee, is on everyone's mind. Surely a little early for the president of the OCOG to be designated already, but the elected one will be known « within the next fifteen days at most » according to Michel Barnier. "We must noweveryone keep calm, he insists. We have no time to lose. My concern, beyond the presidency of OCOG, is to rediscover collective work and spirit in these Games. It is very complex to organize Olympic Games. Those of 2030 in particular, with two host regions, 550 kilometers distance between the different competition sites distributed in four clusters." Martin Fourcade could testify to this.
