Renaud Muselier

Renaud Muselier is the President of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region in France. He is currently newsworthy due to his concerns regarding the potential disruption to the 2030 Winter Olympics in the Alps following the election of Eric Ciotti as the new mayor of Nice. Muselier has publicly stated that Ciotti's opposition to using Nice's stadium for the Olympics, which would displace the OGC Nice football club, presents a "real problem" for the Games' organization. As a result, Muselier is considering a "plan B" for the Nice venues proposed by the organizing committee. His position as regional president gives him significant influence over the planning and execution of the Olympics within the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region, making his concerns and potential alternative plans highly relevant to the future of the Games.
