Ukraine Sports Minister Viktor Korzh has criticised what he has called inadequate preparations by the country's host cities for the 2012 European soccer championship to be staged jointly with Poland.

A statement published on the Ukraine soccer federation's Web site (www.ffu.org.ua) after a meeting of senior officials on Monday criticised all four host cities Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk Kiev, and Lviv plus two others in reserve, Odessa and Kharkiv.
The statement "expressed concern...at the state of implementation of orders issued by Ukraine's president and prime minister as well as the government plan of action". It gave no further details.
Although stadiums are being improved in Ukraine more than 15 years after independence from Soviet rule, rail and road links, airport facilities and hotels will all have to be overhauled to accommodate the inflow of fans.
