FIFA rejects President Zelensky’s request to let him share a video message of global peace before World Cup final

16-12-2022 17:47

FIFA has reportedly rejected Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s request to share a message of world peace which he had planned to broadcast before kickoff at the World Cup final on Sunday, writes dailymail.co.uk.

Zelensky offered to appear in a video, speaking to fans in the stadium ahead of the game in Qatar.

“We thought FIFA wanted to use its platform for the greater good”, - said a source speaking to CNN, adding that Zelensky’s office was surprised by the negative response.

MailOnline has reached out to clarification from FIFA but did not receive a reply prior to publication.

Talks between Zelensky and FIFA are still underway, CNN said, meaning a message may still be agreed ahead of Sunday’s game between Argentina and France.
