1. 00:00 SOUNDBITE (Russian) Vladimir Putin, Russian President:
"We understand it was not an easy decision to make, to grant the right to host the Games in a city which back then, barely had 10 to 15 per cent of the necessary infrastructure required. But you placed your faith in our potential, you placed your faith in the Russian character, which doesn't flinch from difficulties, and that unites us."
