Our objective is to win over 100 spots for the 2012 London Olympics by the end of qualifications games (early July 2012). Our sportsmen have all the prerequisites to achieve all the set goals and objectives and to perform at least as well as they did at the Beijing Olympics,” the Ministry’s press-service said.
