The Swedish Olympic Committee is currently conducting a feasibility study, where they are investigating the possibility of arranging the Winter Olympics in 2030.
As part of this, a visit was made earlier this month to Latvia's capital Riga.
"Good and possible alternative"
Latvian Sigulda was in the plan created when Sweden applied for the 2026 Olympics (which Milan-Cortina later won the battle for), as the organizer of bobsleigh, luge and skeleton.
It's an option that's highly topical now, too.
"We don't have a bobsleigh, luge and skeleton track, and we don't intend to build that either. So it's natural that Latvia is a good and possible alternative," SOK's incoming vice-chairman Hans von Uthmann told SVT Sport.
Are you in contact with more people regarding bobsleigh, luge and skeleton?
- Not yet.
Are there plans for that?
"It's important that we look at suitable facilities, but we had a very good dialogue with Sigulda last time. So we hope that in that case it will be able to work like that this time as well and there was a lot of interest on their part.
Want indoor sports too
But Latvia's interest does not only apply to bobsleigh, luge and skeleton. During the meeting, Latvia announced that they would like to arrange any additional sports as well, and would like to see one of the indoor ice sports arranged in the capital Riga.
"They made a request, so you have to discuss when and if we get closer," von Uthmann says.
So it's not something you're ruling out, but also haven't thought much more about?
- That's probably a good and diplomatic summation. We don't close any doors, but we're not at all in a position to say it'll be there or there in any of the branches.
But it wasn't that they put forward as a demand that they get, for example, ice hockey or short track?
- That's not how the discussions went.
