I never understood Sochi, and I am willing to guess it will be a massive failure.

Is there anyway they would re-choose where to host it?
I'm sure lots of what he said was valid, but the parts about how Sochi doesn't need those types of facilities doesn't tell the whole story.

If you look at Sochi 2014's website, it says that basically all the Olympic village venues (ie; hockey rink, oval, etc.) are designed so they are mobile and will be transported to other Russian cities for permanent homes after the Olympics.

If the opposition leader is conveniently ignoring that relevant information in that interview it's hard to believe that he's not leaving out more important info as well.
