MINSK, 12 March (BelTA) – The construction of a dining hall for athletes taking part in the 2nd European Games in Minsk will be completed by 1 April, Minsk Mayor Anatoly Sivak said in an interview with the Belarus 1 TV channel, BelTA has learned.
“The dining hall is a very important facility. The roof works have already been done. The general construction works will be finished in three weeks. We have the necessary resources for that,” Anatoly Sivak said.
The city will be up to scratch to host the 2nd European Games. “This is a key event for us,” the Minsk mayor noted.
Initially, a temporary food pavilion was to be set up in the Students Village. However, later a decision was taken to build an addition to the Ice Arena in the Malinovka neighborhood near the Students Village. During the 2nd European Games, this facility will be used as a dining hall for athletes. When the games are over, it will serve as a multi-purpose sports facility for children and juniors.
