The information was released at the government session held by President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko
          Mr Nikolai Ladutko, Chairman of the Minsk City Executive Committee, informed about possible reconstruction designs. The Dinamo stadium will no longer be an Olympic stadium. Instead it will be fit for football only. The larger elevation angle of the spectator stands will considerably improve the reception of the game. The missing field-and-track infrastructure will be compensated for by other facilities that will be created in Minsk.
         The Minsk mayor suggested holding a tender for the best design and letting the winner to develop the stadium design as a whole.
Alexander Lukashenko said that the main part of the project could be implemented without foreign loans, thus saving a lot of funds. Mr Sergei Rumas, Chairman of the Belarusian Football Federation, OAO Belarus Development Bank Chairman of the Board, agreed with that. He remarked that the Belarus Development Bank could take part in financing the project.
