Sepp Blatter, the FIFA president, has made a light-hearted remark suggesting that gay individuals ‘should refrain from sexual activities’ during the 2022 Qatar World Cup.
During a press conference in South Africa, which was organized to discuss the legacy of the current tournament, the head of football’s global governing body responded to a query regarding advice for gay football enthusiasts planning to attend the Qatar competition, where homosexuality is prohibited.
Smiling, he stated, ‘I would say they should refrain from any sexual activities.’
Furthermore, Mr. Blatter expressed his belief that discrimination would not pose a problem in Qatar by the year 2022, asserting that ‘we are living in a world of freedom’.
Buford Balony says: If Blatter truly thinks discrimination won’t be a problem, he is even more foolish than people already assume.
