"The government can organize the World Athletics Championships even without the capital, as the International Athletics Federation has agreed with the government on the organization," said the international lawyer to the ATV News. According to Tamás Lattmann, however, the potential veto of the capital may have such a political effect that the association will reconsider the contract, reports Mandiner .

As we wrote , Gergely Karácsony recently announced that he would veto the organization of the 2023 World Athletics Championships.

According to Lattmann, the veto put into perspective by Gergely Karácsony may have such a political effect that the association will reconsider the contract if the host city does not have the support. The Hungarian government, the Hungarian Athletics Association and the International Athletics Association (IAAF) concluded a contract for the event, and the capital has no say in this. Although a political agreement was reached between the leadership of the capital and the government, Budapest can cancel this, but it does not have any legal means to prevent the settlement.
