"I’m ready to stand as President for four more years," says Hansen

Svein Arne Hansen has told the European Athletics Member Federations that he is ready to run for another four years as President.

In a 50-minute on-stage interview with journalist and athletics expert Alfons Juck at this weekend’s CEO Conference in Minsk, Belarus, Hansen and Juck reviewed the accomplishments of his first term as President to date.

By end of June 2018, Hansen will have visited all but one of the Member Federation countries since he became President in April 2015.

Hansen said, “The first three years have gone by so fast! But during my time as President, I have been most proud of the organisational changes, the work of the head office staff and the commitment of the political level to change and innovation.

The European Athletics Elective Congress will be in April 2019.
