UEFA has just presented a new logo of Euro 2012 (European championship in football) which will be held in Poland and Ukraine. There are some controversies which are discussed in Poland right now:
-Polish flag's colors are not red and white (they are white and red instead)
-Some say it's too Eastern-Europe-like and not very fancy

The brand story of UEFA Euro Championships 2012 logo:
Personally I have to admit that I am not really sure what to think about it. The flourishing football with the flags as leaves gives good associations and should work well as a symbol. But on the other hand- hmm, it looks as a big-headed guy with widespread arms or sth. And it's really kind of old-fashioned, maintaining the stereotype of backward Poland and Ukraine..
