During the meeting, Dr Wu expressed his admiration for the excellent venue used for the AIBA Youth World Boxing Championships, and for the outstanding job done by Mr Ininski and his federation.

The Prime Minister explained that this new venue was strongly wanted by the government because Bulgaria understands the value of sport as a tool to bring people together, and in this case, this arena aims to promote the image of Bulgaria at an international level.
