Politics and football should not mix. This is wrong. FIFA is being biased.
Until he wastes the lives of all the soccer players in Ukraine & relegates their local leagues.
Until he kills the Klitschko Brothers.
Until he kills the Polvolt world champion.
Until he wipes off the entire Ukraine from FIFA World Championship.
Whites don wait to act.
They act and wait to observe the effects.
That's what both parties are doing now.

The 1995 FIFA World Youth Championship, known as the 1995 FIFA/Coca-Cola World Youth Championship for sponsorship purposes, was the 10th edition of the FIFA World Youth Championship. It was held in Qatar from 13 to 28 April 1995. The tournament took place in three venues within the city of Doha. The tournament was originally going to be held in Nigeria. Due to a meningitis outbreak, however, Nigeria withdrew from hosting duties and FIFA relocated the event to Qatar.


Mynd44:
1. Nigeria 95 held and it was won by Cameroon
2. Atlanta 96 and France 98 were FIFA events not CAF. CAF can't ban you from FIFA events

Firstly I was thinking that Sanctions won't do much, but the way things are going Russians will feel ostracised & isolated leading to protest against it government in the long run.
Exactly,that's the plan they have in mind with all the sanctions.
Russians will be turned against its government and there will be internal crisis that will spiral out of control.
Just watch in the coming days what will happen with the pockets of protest that is happening in Russia now.

The war is now Russia against the world. How do Russia think they'll win this battle huh huh
Putin isn't fighting to win. America has double standards. They have invaded and changed even democratic governments in many countrie.

They threatened nuclear war with Cuba when Russia put their weapons there because Russian weapons in Cuba was too close for comfort. They want to make Ukraine an ally to have Russia within easy reach, why should Russia accept?

Putin isn't really decimating Ukraine the way he can, he seems to be playing with them because the casually figure isn't more than what boko haram kills on a normal weekend in our peaceful country

Hmm

What is Fifa Doing.

Fifa is now mixing the game of football with politics.

The rules are built by the leaders to be broken by them.

Fifa is being corrupt here.

In 1996, the Nigerian government refused to to go to AFCON because of the racial discrimination against black South Africans, CAF a subsidiary of the FIFA franchise did not view it as a valid reason but went ahead to ban Nigeria from the 1998 edition.

FIFA has a policy; politics and football should not mix else you will get a fine maybe this only applies to certain people as everyone is watching FIFA. If these countries refuse to play against Russia and are not sanctioned, then FIFA has a lot of explaining to do
The fact that fifa has a standing policy that politics and football should not mix using Nigeria's case in 1996..should not be a determing factor here.

This is war and a mad man is on the loose he needs to be tamed by all means possible...he needs to feel the heat from all angles...also countries refusing to play against Russia is to pass a strong message of thier displeasure as human lives is at stake here ..

FIFA knows that even if she has a strong policy on ground..is humanity first before anything as it is human resource that will watch and play the game ..I wonder if all are dead cos of Putin what we be the way forward for fifa.

Policies can be changed along with changing times and for the greater good.


Am in total support for fifa

Nigeria withdrew not for politics but health. FYI, the African version which was a qualifier to the main event help in Nigeria that same year so why is this up here?

Why do you people refer to a full blown war as "politics".
Na only you dae see full blown war.

This is International Politics at work, I pray for wise leaders that would maintain unity in Africa, I don't care if we are backward.

We don't need foolish leaders like Zelensky, In life there's a law that says do to others what you want them to do to you, otherwise it's hypocrisy and wickedness.

You already have a very foolish leader at the helm of affairs right now in Nigeria.
We are the world's laughingstock at the moment.

FIFA should explain to you or to who exactly?
See, this is beyond politics, this is crime against humanity and the involving Country should be banned from participating in any human competitions until further notice.
Asides their fans, do you think their players are safe in those 'neutral' ground?
You think the European Country will provide security for Nationals of a country they have sanctioned?
How will they even enter the EU in the first place?

Western propaganda machinery did not see this when Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen, and Syria were all invaded.

Palestinians never got this kind of response when Israel invaded them.

I wonder how some people sleep with all the atrocities they have committed in the past.

Ukraine, even in war, still has power, no queue at the fuel stations. There is still water running and their president is in Ukraine.
Now, compare to Nigeria that is not at war, where is PMB at the monent?

He should continue naaa.
He thinks others don't have NUCLEAR WEAPONS.
He should ask JAPAN how they got their Jumia package from America.
He shouldn't think a country that launched its own in the 1940s will lie stayput without improving. This is not Nigeria.
What people don't know is if Russia and China wield half the power in the west since the last 50years, blacks would be working in plantations with their lips sealed and hands in chain.


Even this Ukraine self....

Bro putin won't go that far. Everyone's playing the waiting game amidst the sanctions. Whichever country that'll attack russia first, then 2022 don stew.
I don't blame putin, he's only after the interest of his country. Ukraine should back down from joining NATO. Dasall. Russia don't want any foreign bases in their space.
What if someone comes to you and say you must be their friend and as such cease and profitable friendship you had or intend to have with some other persons because they feel threatened by your friendship with those other persons?

Russia seems happy knowing Ukraine is the poorest country in Europe dont you think the Ukrainians dont like that title?

Don't you think they would rather associate with a group to uplift them?

What ever stops Russian from brokering good deals to favour Ukraine all these years?

My friend this is 2022, no need to force people on any unprofitable association again.
