Hungary’s performance at the Olympics in Paris was “respectable”, but the country’s place is “in the top ten” in terms of medals, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said in an interview published in Nemzeti Sport on Saturday. Orbán revealed that he had hoped Hungarians would take eight golds home from Paris, instead of six. To advance, he said Hungary needed to do more than just take what it had learnt in Paris to the next Olympics. He added that Hungary needed to keep up in the new Olympic sports, too, and avail of untapped potential in sports such as cycling and combat sports. Orbán said that Budapest had the sports infrastructure necessary to host the Games, but an Olympics in the capital would require the support of the municipal council. “If we want to, we can bring the ’36 [Games] here,” he added.
