           The five-ringed circus has landed in the heart of the Argentinian capital for the most important meeting of sport's power brokers in a generation, as prime ministers and princes scrabble to secure the 2020 Olympics. The finest restaurants and hotels of Buenos Aires have been humming with fevered speculation, before four days that will set the course of the Olympic movement over the next 12 years in three key votes. The 104 International Olympic Committee members will participate in this Olympic. Madrid can deliver a welcome dose of good news to spain by winning the right to host the 2020 Summer olympics when the International Olympic Committee (IOC) members vote in Buenos Aires on Saturday. The two-year recession with the young especially badly , Spain has suffered affected in terms of unemployment and while victory of Madrid will not cure all the ills it will at least offer hope and boost morale.

Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Mariano Rajoy, prime minister of Spain., will fly in from the G20 summit hoping to replicate the positive effect that tonyBlair had on London's bid in 2005 and the boost that then Brazilian president Lula gave Rio in 2009.
                             In the Olympic, the final presentations, traditionally a weak suit for both in previous failed bids, will be the key. The Japanese delegation is hoping the urbane Princess Hisako of Takamado will impress, while Madrid will deploy its own royal asset. Tokyo traded on their being the safest, most secure and financially assured of the bids and for long periods that bore out. The Governor of Tokyo, though produced a different picture of the situation and in a pugnacious display on Friday said the Japanese Government had things under control. the eagerly-awaited verdict is due to be revealed to the world by retiring IOC president Jacques Rogge at 2030 GMT.
