Of the original five cities that were touted as the venue for the 2024 Olympic Games, only Los Angeles and Paris remain. In March, Budapest was withdrawn following a campaign launched by the activist group Momentum which has gone through the formal processes to become a political party. András Fekete-Győr has been elected as party chairman.
