The leadership of the organizing committee of the Olympics in Paris is working on a project to place the Olympic flame on the Eiffel Tower. It is reported by Reuters, citing a source familiar with the situation.

As it became known to the agency, work on these projects has been going on for two years. At the same time, it remains unclear whether the flame will be placed on the tower for the duration of the Olympics. In addition, the interlocutor of the agency noted that the fire could not be placed at the very top of the tower, since antennas are located there.

The representative of the organizing committee did not deny the idea of ​​installing the Olympic flame on the Eiffel Tower. He also added that the location of the fire on the opening day of the Olympic Games has not yet been determined.

The Paris Olympic Games are scheduled to take place from July 26 to August 11, 2024. The decision on the admission of Russians to the competition has not yet been made.
