The leadership of world football does not want to focus on Russia's invasion.
The International Football Federation (FIFA) has not allowed Ukraine to demonstrate at the congress in Doha footage of Russia's military action in Ukrainian cities.
An address to its participants by the President of the Ukrainian Football Association Andrei Pavelko was presented at the congress.
Alexander Denisov, director of the “Football 1/2/3” TV channels, has published the full version of the video with Pavelko. It also contained footage of the war in Ukraine, which FIFA did not show in the end.
“This is what UAF President Andrei Pavelko's video address to the FIFA Congress should have looked like today. But FIFA did not allow footage of the war in Ukraine to be shown on the screen.
Secondly, today the FIFA Congress approved Russian as one of the six official languages of FIFA.
And finally. The Congress did not include in the agenda the issue of excluding Russia from competitions under the auspices of FIFA.
This is all you need to know about FIFA's partnership and solidarity at a time of hardship for Ukraine, “Denisov wrote on Facebook.
