Salt Lake City IOC
In may 2012, the IOC will make a pre-selection amongst the candidates and only will pass the cut to those who are truly qualified. It is an obstacle that the two previous candidacies of Madrid, 2012 and 2016, passed without difficulty. The final choice will be on September 7, 2013 in the Assembly to the IOC held in Buenos Aires.

Winter Games of 2014 PyeongChang Madrid wants to follow the path of success that drove a week ago the South Korean PyeongChang County to get the games in his third consecutive attempt, an insistence which, however, has not given fruits to cities like Istanbul or the Spanish Jaca. The victory of PyeongChang on July 6 in the choice of the seat of the winter games of 2014 was attributed by members the IOC not only to their repeated attempts but, above all, to the maintenance of the promises that ten years had done regarding improvement of installations and infrastructures and solidarity with third countries programmes. As PyeongChang, had earlier triumphed thanks to its insistence Lillehammer (1992 and 1994), Salt Lake City (1998 and 2002), Athens (1996 and 2004), Beijing (2000 and 2008), all of them with only two attempts, and Rio de Janeiro, which paved the way in 2004 and 2012, without passing the cut, and triumphed with the project by 2016. It was not the case in many other cities, like Istanbul, possible rival for 2020 of Madrid and already asked what games of 2000, 2004, 2008 and 2012. The Government’s support of the Government and Minister of public works, Jose Blanco, spokesman has assured Wednesday that the Executive sees positive the candidature of Madrid Olympic Games of 2020 because it originates from the consensus and does not represent an added cost. White wanted to make it clear that unlike the Government rather than Madrid present for the third time its candidature, that is a dream, taking into account that part of the consensus and that the Spanish capital has already infrastructure basically made, without entailing any added cost. To us in principle, on the basis of that consensus, we welcome it, the new spokesperson of the Executive has insisted in statements to journalists in the hallways of the Congress of Deputies.
