It has since been revealed that an Olympic committee member, Carlos Arthur Nuzman, had agreed with the Brazilian government in exchange for $2 million to guarantee Brazil winning the Olympic host country. At the time, Rio was already in debt of $107 billion and the cost of the event was well over $13 billion. These costs included transport, hotel rooms, sports complexes as well as environmental clean-ups.
