Qatar’s executive director of communications, Nasser Al Kahter, insists that Qatar will host the 2022 FIFA World Cup after a FIFA member said he believes the World Cup won’t take place there.
“Qatar will host the FIFA World Cup in 2022, despite the comments of FIFA Executive Committee member Dr. Zwanziger, which reflect his personal opinion and not that of FIFA.
“The only question now is WHEN, not IF. Summer or winter, we will be ready. We have proven that a FIFA World Cup in Qatar in the summer is possible with state-of-the-art cooling technology.
“We have demonstrated that our cooling works in outdoor areas beyond stadiums. This summer we welcomed fans in Doha to an open-air Brazil 2014 Fan Zone with temperatures cooled to a comfortable 22 degrees Celsius.”
