For seven who want to occupy a sports position – the President of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) – they will receive 15 minutes of glory on Thursday.
One woman and six men get the opportunity to present their manifesto, their vision for the Olympic movement before the whole of the Olympic family in the Swiss town of Lausanne.
It is the only way that the candidates for the success of the current President of the IO Thomas Bach have a “official” time to persuade membership in IOC as much as 200 countries to vote for them.
After the presentation “7”, the IOC family must wait until March when everyone meets in Athens, Greece will vote.
Then we will know who will be the new president of the IOC, a man or woman who will monitor Milan's winter's winter, and then deal with US President Donald Trump, as well as a fire caused by Los Angeles in front of La Summer Games 2028.
IOC also has many other challenges for the address and while there is a crossover idea among seven candidates, some have more authnic ideas while others are smaller.
Sporting Legend CoE is needed by little intro
Coe won gold on LA Olympic Games in 1984. Years
Of the seven candidates, two British. Sebastian Coie It takes a little intro. Sports legend of the trail, Olympic golds and world boot records with the person who submitted a successful Olympic Games and paraspiny games in London 2012. years.

Billionaire businessman specializing in turning Fortunes around, is the most famous sports head manufacturer '.
In recent decades, he drew attention to climate and environmental issues. Quietly and quietly spoken with the Swedish emphasis on what he was born and grew up there, Eliasch was also president of the global sports. His wet body is a ski and snowboard FIS. He also worked for the premiere, also advised work and conservatives and counting royal manuals as friends.
Eliasch's cf. are his climate credentials. Billionaire Yes, so some would say that you can afford to have aware, but he talked about it for a while.

The planet wasn't designed for eight Billion people Living the way we do. And there is only one planet. And we don't I have no technology to go somewhere else in the galaxy or in space. Let's face it.
“We need to find solutions, now if we translate it into the initiatives … There are many locations for winter games, many places that will be very challenging.
“I'm not quite negative for the future of winter games. But here we are duty and we don't want to create an infrastructure that cannot be used in the future and is already proposed by IOC, to have a rotation scheme.
“We focus on certain regions, where the federations in question can be made, supported by these regions. So for the winter games of smaller regions used by every two or three releases of winter games. So let's say 10 places and rotate games between these 10 places. “

While the Leverage, as all candidates, publicly return from the IOC revolution, COE's “evolution” comes from the belief that “too much may lie in the hands too few people”.
Coe IOC would see sports and athletes in the heart and the center of all decisions, together with the whole membership in the IOC. He wants a collaborative presidency.
CoE was the most molestical of all candidates around the debate on determining which is the “female category”. As president of the World Athletics, he supervised the policy that determines that and forbidden transgender women from such a category.
The rule states that “no transgender athlete who passed through the male puberty could compete in women's world competitions.”
If the panel becomes a new IOC president, questions about the protection of “women's categories” and awards, another topic will address a hot-based topic. He is his belief and that he had a clear policy on transgender athletes and those with DSD (sexual disabilities) in Paris 2024, controversial and mis-reporting about two female boxers, Imani Khelif and Lin Yu Tinga, would be avoided.
