Bahrain wins bid to host 2024 IWF World Championships

 13:23,

YEREVAN, JUNE 12, ARMENPRESS. Manama, the capital of Bahrain, will host the IWF World Championships 2024 edition. 

Bahrain’s bid received more support from the IWF Executive Board in Havana than the two other candidates for next year’s IWF top-event, Armenia and Albania.

Armenia hosted the 2023 EWF Weightlifting European Championships.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
