The Yaroslavl bear was put to a chink.
The Yaroslavl bear was put to a chink.
Hockey for Russia is more than game is a national property
Our country in the last half a century. However, with disintegration of the USSR interest
To game has considerably fallen. Results on various tournaments of a steel
Pitiable, young players were pulled on the West behind "long rouble",
And tribunes of palaces of sports on the sly became empty.
HOWEVER possibility to hold the World championship among the strongest
Planet commands bribed, here it is possible to declare in all voice that,
That former prestige to us under force to return, receive whists in the political
To struggle (it is no secret, that voices of voters now very expensively
Stand, and carrying out of such action, clear business, will add
Points to the sharp candidate for the Duma or at least on a post of the governor).
As is known, the World championship on hockey should take place
In St.-Petersburg and Yaroslavl. For what in both cities have started
Grandiose buildings of ice palaces of sports.
But there was a discomfiture, and to spend in Yaroslavl the championship it will not be possible.
One good undertaking could not come true. The fact remains
The fact - Peter should drag responsibility cargo alone
For all country as a whole and for Yaroslavl, in particular.
The governor of northern capital Vladimir Jakovlev has noted, what is it
Means for a city on Neva additional problems, as
It is very difficult to spend on four matches in day.
"But this championship we waited for a long time, and I am glad, that by means of many
Interested people, the present fans of the business, we have achieved
That is had. Now our main task - the strengthened rates
To accelerate jobs on sports constructions. You for certain heard,
That the Government has given the commission to the Ministries of Economics and the finance
To consider possibility of assignment for completion of objects.
While financing of the under construction and reconstructed sports
Constructions it is made at the expense of city means and foreign
Investments under guarantees of the city budget. Jobs are conducted in
Conformity with schedules ", - the governor in conversation has underlined
With our Petersburg sports correspondent Sergey Grigoriev.
Matches of the championship of Russia with participation Petersburg SKA pass "in
The updated ice hall "stadium" Anniversary ", at reconstruction
Which the requirements shown to the sports have been observed
To constructions for carrying out of the World championships on hockey.
And nevertheless, why Yaroslavl has withdrawn ahead of schedule? The answer
It is prosy: because to the championship beginning a sports construction
In this city it will not be ready. Because of shortage of money, more correctly,
Because of wrong distribution of the allocated means. No, ice
The sports palace in Yaroslavl will be, of course, constructed, but not to п?п -2000,
And to youth world superiority which will take place in Russia
In the end of the next year. On it to journalists was informed by the governor
The Yaroslavl area Anatoly Lisitsyn.
Despite conclusions of the special governmental commission, that
Sports-concert complex at corresponding financing
It is quite possible to complete to the beginning of the adult hockey championship-2000,
The government of the Russian Federation nevertheless has passed the decision to spend the world championship
In one city - St.-Petersburg. Are thus accurately defined
Sources of financing of a construction of the Yaroslavl ice Palace
The sports which readiness is defined by the commission in 40 percent.
By the way governor Lisitsyn repeatedly declared, that
For end of building it is necessary for it of 15-20 million dollars
And cent it is more. But if to pay attention to those sums, which
Organizers will enter Yaroslavl nowadays it is easy to notice, that money
Will receive much more, namely 30 million US dollars. It
- The credit of the government of Finland (under guarantees of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation), though,
It is thought, it would be possible to allocate money for building simply
From the budget, and credits to start up on lifting of a poor national economy
And areas where constantly there are social explosions (one strike
Drivers of that costs). 15 million dollars More will give Open Society "Gazprom"
And 12 million dollars - means from realisation of mineral oil in
The bill of offsets of Ministry of Fuel and Energy.
Here the most interesting also begins. In hands of the correspondent "RG"
The curious document which regulates oil delivery has got
On "JAroslavnefteorgsintez". In him, in particular, it is said, that
Oil deliveries are obligatory for all companies-manufacturers
(Them in total over fifty). Curious tactics -
Oil have received, money has earned, a palace has constructed. Besides
Actions have extended and... Have saved set of means, after all
This profitable business: the championship will end, and a complex it is possible
To convert in a casino, a concert platform, a disco, it too
Additional incomes. Thus the hydrocarbonic raw materials for some reason buy not
Administration of the Yaroslavl area, and certain enterprise "п я п п?п -2000".
It is necessary to return the Finnish credits to the Government. Or all the same
To Yaroslavl?
Interesting detail. To Peter money only has promised, and to Yaroslavl
The financial and oil stream is already directed. And after all to northern capital
Means are necessary more: St.-Petersburg today - last hope
Not to swear at one another before the civilised world. I do not know, that think
Officials in numerous departments, but there is a situation,
That someone conducts the games and the championship - only good screen,
Behind which it is easy to do the affairs. Certainly, it is possible to track
Each rouble from that money that will go to a city on Volga, but
Whether here there will be numerous fiscal bodies with all gravity
To approach to the job? After all before them there are not ordinary citizens
And the old women, trying to save each rouble not to die
With hunger, and officials of a large rank to contact with which
In regions it is fraught for own career.
But we will return to oil affairs. In the press-service of Ministry of Fuel and Energy, where
We have applied to comment on this paper, anything
Plainly could not respond, otfutbolivaja (or othokkeivaja?) on
To chain from one official to another. Probably, it is somehow connected
With explosions in capital, and can, they have simply nothing to tell?
Well - money is, builders work, so in what an incident?
It is thought, that the reason at all in absence of the corresponding
Infrastructures in the Volga city (there finish reconstruction
The airport and four hotels which will be not a shame for offering
Several thousand foreign tourists), and in danger, what not
It will be possible to finish in time building Yaroslavl sports-concert
Complex on 9 thousand places.
STILL on August, 31st the governor of the Yaroslavl area Anatoly Lisitsyn
Lips of the press-service authoritatively assured: the most labour-consuming
Jobs on arena erection (the base, walls, engineering communications)
Are already executed, in Finland test now arch overlapping,
Which should establish by November, 1st. By April, 1st an ice complex
Will put in operation - there will be even a month for adjustment and operational development,
Well and at the worst it is possible ice arena and to be limited, having left
"On then" a so-called concert part with a scene, restaurants,
Offices, garages.
Similar, mystical month appears August fatal not only
In political, economic, financial, but also in a hockey life
Russia. Session of the Government of Stepashin in the beginning of August, where
Should "close" definitively a hockey question, has not taken place
In view of office resignation. Instead of it have followed the revolutionary
The offer of the minister of sports of Boris Ivanjuzhenkova to transfer the Yaroslavl
The World championship program to Podolsk situated near Moscow.
Minister Ivanjuzhenkov whom we managed to meet, in the
Estimations was short:
- Carrying out of world superiority is very responsible job.
She demands full concentration of all who is involved in the organisation
This tournament. First of all for us the championship is possibility
To support prestige of the state as one of fashion-makers
In world hockey. Us should respect still. And to Russians
Is necessary rare possibility to see the strongest commands of the world.
As to a bad story with Yaroslavl, a city simply
Has not had time to make that from it was required, and itself has missed the
Chance. Now it has a possibility to be rehabilitated - to youth
To superiority. And the championship can quite accept Podolsk. Though,
Certainly, it will be solved by the special governmental commission.
BUT IDEA of the new minister about carrying over of the championship to Moscow suburbs
Has not passed, and the Yaroslavl administration, not having been in time adequately to be prepared
To world superiority, tries to find the justification. At press conference
For local mass-media on August, 29th governor Lisitsyn has declared:
- It seems to me, all understood, what even at delays in financing
We would prepare ice arena in due time. Other business - the Government.
It has not time to open the demand line of credit on 30 million dollars,
Intended not on building, and for equipment deliveries.
It is assured, followed podnaprjachsja and to find possibility to make it
Now, instead of in January that the World championship passed nevertheless in
Two cities. Eventually not Peter or Yaroslavl it will organise,
And Russia, here from this also it was necessary to proceed. Two years after all fought
For it, and now and from the financial point of view tournament in one city
Definitely will burn through, and with political there is a serious risk, that
On the eve of elections jaroslavtsy can "not understand" the power which has deprived
Their hockey World championship.
Last statement of mister Lisitsyn was such: better, say,
In the end of 2000 at us there will pass the main matches of the youth world
Superiority, than in the spring - a minor part of the program of the adult
The World championship. A good mine at bad game?
Now, leaves, in Peter will daily pass on four
Meetings - only here who them to look begins? The Petersburg governor
JAkovlev knowingly worries in this occasion. Here and considerable
Loss of means as to achieve absolute attendance
It will be rather problematic.
In addition to other efforts it is necessary to federation of hockey of Russia
Also to alter a calendar of world superiority, to speak
In Zurich with a management of the International federation of hockey in hope
To avoid penal sanctions for default of the obligations taken on.
And very few people doubts, that they for certain will follow. To pay off
Again it is necessary from budgetary funds.
For now in loss only jaroslavtsy...
