Dubai has a sporting chance of hosting the Olympics despite its harsh climate, according to the head of 2014 Winter Games in the Russian city of Sochi.
No Arab country has ever hosted the world's largest sporting event. But Dubai is expected to bid for the 2024 Summer Olympics, a top official at the UAE National Olympic Committee said this month.
Dmitry Chernyshenko, the chief executive of Russia's Sochi 2014 Olympic Organising Committee, predicts such an event will be held in the Arabian Gulf.
