The head of the Qatar 2022 World Cup has rejected calls for the tournament to be awarded to another country.
Governing body Fifa is expected to move the tournament to winterto avoid Qatar’s high summer temperatures.
And Football Association chairman Greg Dyke said the tournament might have to move location if a suitable time to play in Qatar could not be agreed.
But Hassan al-Thawadi insists there is “no reason” why Qatar should not host the event as planned in 2022.
“We’ve worked very, very hard to ensure we’re within the rules of the bidding, within the rules of the hosting agreement,” he told BBC Sport.
“At the same time we’re delivering on all the promises that we’ve made. We’re working very hard to deliver it. The commitment is there.”
Fifa president Sepp Blatter is determined to switch the 2022 World Cup to the winter as summer temperatures can reach 50C in the Middle Eastern country.
Blatter, 77, has admitted the governing body may have made a “mistake” in awarding the tournament to Qatar in the summer.
“[Qatar] is the right place, the Middle East is the right place,” said Al-Thawadi, who is Secretary General of the Qatar 2022 Organising Committee.
“We are representing the Middle East, it is a Middle Eastern World Cup, so it is the right place. The Middle East deserves to host a major tournament.”
FA chairman Dyke told the BBC in August that a summer World Cup in Qatar, who defeated rival bids from South Korea, Japan, Australia and the United States in December 2010, would be “impossible”.
The Premier League has taken an opposing stance, with chief executive Richard Scudamore insisting the tournament should go ahead in the summer.
However, Europe’s leading clubs have said they are “open” to the possibility of a winter World Cup in Qatar in 2022.
Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, chairman of the European Club Association (ECA) believes it is “probably” better to switch the finals to winter.
The ECA is an independent body representing the interests of Europe’s leading clubs. Ten English clubs are members – Arsenal, Aston Villa, Chelsea, Everton, Fulham, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Newcastle and Tottenham.
