UEFA President Michel Platini said the 2022 FIFA World Cup will not be staged in the summer in Qatar due to the -unbearable heat Authentic Mike Smith Jersey , the Frenchman said Tuesday in Beijing at the Chinese Soccer Development Forum.
The FIFA decision will definitely impact the Winter Olympic Games, for which Beijing is jointly bidding with Zhang-jiakou, Hebei Province.
Platini, head of the most influential member confederation under FIFA, said he believes there is enough time to coordinate between the clubs and hosts before the 2022 World Cup Finals.
Despite International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Thomas Bach saying previously that FIFA President Sepp Blatter had promised him that the two events will not clash, -Blatter's comments are often considered unreliable.
Blatter, who is planning to stand for a fifth term as FIFA president in next year's election Authentic Michael Stone Jersey , said in June it was a "mistake" for FIFA's Executive Committee to award Qatar the hosting rights to the 2022 event.
On Monday, a report from German magazine Der Spiegel said the 78-year-old Swiss made the remarks, saying Qatar's -rulers are "arrogant" and "think they're allowed to do anything with their money," at a dinner with Norwegian soccer officials in Norway on October 13. He apparently said that Qatar would be stripped of the hosting rights and was outspoken against Qatar's rulers for supporting Islamic terror groups.
Though FIFA denied the -report in a statement later, the incident also raised more doubts over Blatter's credibility.
Chinese fans are eager to host a World Cup and even dream one day China could lift the World Cup trophy, but the former Ballon d'Or winner Platini thinks fans should -remain patient.
As Qatar won the bid to host the 2022 event, normally China should wait another 20 years for a chance to bid Authentic Max Domi Jersey , but Platini added, "there's nothing normal in FIFA."
"I think representing in every World Cup Finals every four years is more important than winning one," he said.
Reports also suggest that several promising Chinese players, including Zhang Xizhe of Beijing Guoan and Wu Lei of Shanghai SIPG, are eyeing moves to European top-tier soccer league sides, but Platini gave a short shrift to the idea.
He recommended that -China should improve its home facilities and systems rather than always eyeing having -players in Europe.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5 (Xinhua) -- In the wake of the worst mass shooting in U.S. history, calls for more gun control are mounting in Congress. Democrats are pushing for tighter gun restrictions, with Republicans against most anti-gun legislation. The issue is as complex as it is controversial, and experts have myriad viewpoints.
Sunday saw the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history. The shooter, Stephen Paddock Authentic Luke Schenn Jersey , attacked concert-goers at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas and later took his own life, killing at least 59 people and injuring more than 500 others.
Police found over a dozen additional firearms and explosives in his room, according to authorities and news reports.
In light of the horrific event, Democrats on Wednesday began pushing for more gun control laws, prompting the start of what's sure to be a heated partisan debate over a controversial issue that's gone on for more than a decade.
But experts differ on whether stricter gun laws, if implemented, would work or not.
Leah Libresco Authentic Louis Domingue Jersey , a statistician and former news writer at FiveThirtyEight, a leading data journalism site, wrote earlier this week in the Washington Post that she used to believe more gun laws would reduce deaths. Her research, however, changed her mind.
She and a team of analysts combed through tens of thousands of gun death records for three months, and what they found startled and frustrated her.
""We looked at what interventions might have saved those people, and the case for the (gun control) policies I'd lobbied for crumbled when I examined the evidence Authentic Lawson Crouse Jersey ,"" she wrote.
""The best ideas left standing were narrowly tailored interventions to protect ... potential victims, not broad attempts to limit the lethality of guns,"" she argued.
As she and her co-workers sifted through the data, it seemed less and less clear that one broad gun-control restriction could make a big difference, she wrote.
Indeed, two-thirds of U.S. gun deaths every year are suicides. One-fifth of gun deaths are young men aged 15 to 34, who are killed in homicides in gang violence or street crime. The last notable group were 1 Authentic Justin Peters Jersey ,700 women per year who were usually killed in domestic violence, she wrote.
For the first group, almost no proposed restriction would make it harder for people with guns on hand to use them, she contended.
Older men, who comprised the bulk of gun suicides, need better access to people who could care for them and get them help. Women endangered by specific men need to be prioritized by police, who can enforce restraining orders prohibiting these men from buying and owning guns. Younger men at risk of violence need to be identified and to be connected to mentors who can help them de-escalate conflicts Authentic Jordan Martinook Jersey , she argued.
""I can't endorse policies whose only selling point is that gun owners hate them. Policies that often seem as if they were drafted by people who have encountered guns only as a figure in a briefing book or an image on the news,"" she wrote.
But other experts said curtailing firearms access in certain ways could help reduce gun deaths, in addition to expanding mental health programs.
James Alan Fox, a criminologist at Boston's Northeastern University, who has advised the government on dealing with mass shootings, said stricter background checks could help stem the bloodshed.
