February 5, 2014

SOCHI – Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday welcomed the guests of the International Olympic Committee to their 126th session in Sochi, where the Winter Games open Friday.

The session at a hotel in the Black Sea resort runs Wednesday through Friday, and will be the first to feature an address from a UN secretary-general after Ban Ki-moon confirmed earlier this week that he’ll attend. “Let me declare the 126th session of the International Olympic Committee open” Putin said in English at a welcome event at the Winter Theater in Sochi.
