Stockholm pulls plug on 2022 Games bid


STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - Stockholm has surprisingly pulled the financial plug on its bid to host the 2022 Winter Olympics with the Swedish city's ruling Moderate party saying on Friday that investing in the Games was not attractive enough.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) said in November that six cities, including former summer Games hosts Beijing and Stockholm, had launched bids to stage the 2022 event.
