🧵 FIFA’s approach to its own human rights requirements is scandalous‼️ 🚨They have chosen to ignore big human rights risks to both World Cup bids and just one Federation really raised the alarm! www.nettavisen.no/sport/slar-a...

🧵At midnight, Friday night, FIFA published both the assessment of whether it complied with its human rights policy in Qatar, and the evaluation of the 2030 and 2034 bids. Timing says it all!

Den afrikanske avdelingen av ITUC roper varsko om arbeidsforholdene for afrikanske migrantarbeidere i Saudi-Arabia. Hvem skal Infantino beskylde for rasisme nå?
