The Ukrainian Minister of Sport, Jurij Pawłenko, claims that in 2008 his country will catch up on the preparation to the EURO 2012. We lost a lot of time; honestly, it was 9 months - said Pawłenko on Saturday during the press conference in Kiev.
The minister thinks that the reconstruction of the Olymic Stadium is the most important task for them. Many times UEFA asserted that the Stadium in Kiev, as the international scene of EURO 2012, does not fulfill the security standard.
The main problem is the shopping centre built near the stadium which strongly impedes the emergency action. We have already known what should be done - said Pawłenko. He explained that the surface part of the shopping centre will be liquidated and the owners get a proper compensation. The compensation will be paid by the authorities of Kiev. Both, Poland and Ukraine got the right to the EURO 2012 coordination.

Poland is considering enlisting as many as 20,000 prisoners to help build the stadiums, roads and hotels that it desperately needs to co-host the Euro 2012 soccer tournament.
Pawel Nasilowski, deputy chief of Poland’s prisons, was quoted by the PAP news agency yesterday as saying that use of the inmates was being considered as part of an EU program to rehabilitate prisoners.
Poland is grappling with a shortage of manual labour, particularly of construction workers, amid a booming economy and the departure of hundreds of thousands of Poles to better-paying jobs in Ireland, Britain, and elsewhere in Western Europe.
Nasilowski that the convicts would leave their prisons only in supervised convoys, and stressed that it would also give them a chance at rehabilitation.
He recalled the words of the late Polish-born Pope John Paul II, saying “you are sentenced, but you are not condemned.”
Poland and neighbouring Ukraine won their bid to co-host the sporting event in 2012, but are still struggling with a shortage and crumbling condition of roads and stadiums, a legacy of the communist era.
