As really unlikely event, that would be so ballistic if Santiago gets something Buenos Aires was searching after all these decades and slapping of reality the libertarian trolls starting with the fugitive of the psychiatric they have as leader.

How in 10 months was capable to burn everything in international arena.

@Roger87 whether or not you agree with a 2036 bid from Chile or not, the government of Chile is definitely are interested in hosting in 2036, regardless of whether they have a viable bid or not.  It’s quite possible, even likely, they may not progress to the Targeted Dialogue stage as preferred bidder. 

This was reported earlier this year in ITG - 25 May 2024: 

“The CEO of Santiago 2023, Harold Mayne-Nicholls, told Inside The Games in an exclusive interview that Santiago de Chile's interest in hosting the Olympic Games in 2036 is not only real, but that they are actively working towards it on the orders of President Boric himself.”

UPDATED 2036 LIST - interested parties

1. China 2036
2. Chile 2036
3. Egypt 2036
4. Hungary 2036
5. India 2036
6. Indonesia 2036
7. Qatar 2036
8. Saudi Arabia 2036
9. South Korea 2036
10. Turkey 2036

In case the reference of the libertarians and the leader go to Argentina and the disaster Milei has done in foreign affairs in just 10 months. Special blow to ego against them for a "communist" government like Boric reaching that according to them.

I think that Chile will not be elevated and will not become host in 2036.

And where did I say Santiago has a realistic chance in first place? Jeez

You didn’t, I did.

But you did have a rant at the political situation in Chile.

ahh, ok.   I assumed it was about Chile 2036. I nothing of the politics in Argentina or Chile.

Seriously? LOL 

In case of reference:

-Javier Milei: President of Argentina. Self declared Libertarian. Far right. He made a disaster in foreign affairs cause he hates "communist countries" aka Los zurdos de mierda. He had feuds with China, Mexico, Brazil, Spain, France and of course Chile. 

-Libertarian trolls: His army on social network. Attacking anyone against them even without any sense.

-Gabriel Boric: President of Chile. From a leftist coalition. 

 

When I mentioned it would be based if Chile somehow wins the SOG, I made the statement the bid is impossible but made the comparison to point out an ultimate humiliation from Argentina, who believed their current country, with a currency in worse shape than Venezuela's Bolivars, production stopped and zero consumption, is the best country of Latin America and are saving the Western World and capitalism. And after searching the Olympics to Buenos Aires for 4 times.

The comment doesn't exclaim anything about how realistic is the Santiago bid or even a direct support, it was a mockery against Milei and his minions about the illusion of a "communist" like Boric gets their dream before them.

Jeez, is now cleared?

Istanbul 2036 and Berlin 2040.. deal! (with the handover celebrating Doner Kebab).

There are much stronger candidates interested in 2036 from the list of 10 interested parties.  I think Seoul, South Korea, has a very good chance of progressing to the Targeted Dialogue stage as preferred bidder.

I am flat out stunned with how good German Doners are compared to Turkish ones.  It is something that has always surprised me.  Its the equivalent of finding dominant schnitzel in like..........Russia.  You dont expect it, but there it is.

Don‘t forget the strong influence of Turkish immigrants in establishing a proper Döner culture here. I mean, curries being a British national dish is also not due to some 18th century Yorkshire cattle farmers‘ wives.

During his last visit to the country that‘s no longer named after a bird, our President actually got mocked when he threw a reception at the German embassy and had original Berlin Döner flown in to be served.

Controversial opinion to sow controversy: I eat several kebabs in several German cities during my trip and each time I was very disappointed. I tell myself that maybe the German kebab is overrated. (The kebabs in Romania and Bulgaria are on the other hand exceptional. The Bulgarian who had the brilliant idea of putting pickled cucumber in the kebab must have a Nobel Prize)

Can‘t comment really as I‘ve only ever eaten them in Germany, where quality certainly differs a lot already.

I actually prefer lahmacun anyway.

[Sir Rols]

Not a fan of kebabs generally.

But I do like the Germany Navy’s new musical theme (put sound on)

So what's happened to Nusantara, Indonesia? Why it's out of the list?

As far as I remember, it was there a few weeks ago...

@Andrea  Indonesia is still an interested party for 2036.     

Indonesia continues push to host 2036 Olympic Games as delegation set to visit Paris 2024 - Gamesbids.com April 2024

I think Indonesia is a rank outsider to host in 2036 and far stronger candidates are in the mix.

Wow.  So the '36 race is really heating up between "New Frontiers" countries -- from 4 continents no less!! 

Ahmadabad (how do you spell that thing?),

Budapest

CapeTown-Durban,

Cairo

Doha 
the German Regional bid (they have to be in there to ensure a strong spot for 2040 -- or in case a double-award is considered). 

Istanbul
Nasuntra (is that how that one is spelled)? 
Santiago 
Warsaw 
But seriously, the race is going to be between India and Turkey.  (I'm afraid South Africa might be out because there can't be two consecutive Southern Hemisphere Games--or maybe there could be?  But RSA would have the strongest sporting tradition who could get high on the medal count-- and of all the serious 2036 candidates, RSA would be the only one with major event hosting experience (World Cup 2010) that went well.  India shouldn't brag about their CWGs of 2010 because those were a catastrophe.  

@baron-pierreIV I don’t think Capetown are interested specifically in 2036 but a “future Games” as they have not specified any particular edition.  

Poland recently withdrew interest then re-entered and expressed interest in hosting in 2040 or 2044.

Seoul would have to be among the hot favourites for 2036 being a previoius SOGs host and with lots of existing venues.

In view of the recent posts about kebab I started wondering:

Which of the "interested parties" should be chosen based exclusively on which offfers the best food?

I really like Korean food. 

Ironically my least likely is Indian.

This.

Considering the failure of the constitutional referendum (Which is in part his own fault) and some of his shenanigans per foreign and domestic policies, the main positive legacy lies precisely in the infraestructure and reforms of key elements like sports. 

He knows he won't win (Unless AustralianFan wants to call me for no reason for a comment and trying to escape for his "mistake") but that bid is key for moving some projects which are still on hold (Like the expansion of the Santiago metro system and the big reform of education and sports he had in mind).

@Roger87  no offence was intended when I said I do not think that Chile will be elevated to Targeted Dialogue and will not win the 2036 Games.   I stand by my  opinion.  Don’t be so defensive.  Good luck to Chile for trying though and maybe through this dialogue process they might have an eye for another games sometime in the future.

definitely not germany, sorry:

...side note if anyone lives near Ingolstadt can you please check if "Burger" is really that bad - https://maps.app.goo.gl/Hs6bCakWf82zjAtL8

[Sigh]

Never been to Ingolstadt and now I have another reason not to go there.

Of course the global food chains adapt somewhat to local tastes between countries. I have had Big Mac in many countries and they are definitely not the same from country to country.

You can find both bad and excellent food in most places, even in Germany (but please, no Weißwurst).

However, talking about the local "cuisine" in general I prefer Indonesian food out of the available possibilities.

Ingolstadt has quite a nice historic centre actually. It‘s not only home of Audi but also where Mary Shelley placed Frankenstein and his creation! 

Definitely worth a visit, if you can avoid fast food.
