Ceferin said that he does not want to talk about the difference in approaches to Russia and Israel
The head of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA), Aleksander Čeferin, spoke about the organization’s different approach to military conflicts involving Russia and Israel. His words are quoted by The Guardian.
He noted that he did not want to say anything specific about this. “We monitor every situation, including this one, and it’s difficult for me to comment. The world is going crazy, we have conflicts every day. “I don’t want to say anything more on this topic,” the functionary said.
In December, the President of the Russian Football Union (RFU), Alexander Dyukov, revealed the answer of FIFA and UEFA officials to the question about the absence of sanctions against the Israeli national team. According to him, the functionaries threw up their hands.
Russian national teams were suspended from international tournaments after the start of the SVO in Ukraine. Israeli teams continue to compete in competitions under the auspices of FIFA and UEFA despite the military operation in Palestine.
