Journalist Mikhail Spivakovsky shared some details of the inclusion of Ukraine in the joint application of Spain and Portugal to host the 2030 World Cup.
“There is a purely political subtext in this decision. After all, we do not know what will happen in 2030, we do not even know what will happen tomorrow, whether we will have a country at all.
Ukraine is a very useful application to Spain and Portugal. This story is for everyone. Spain and Portugal strengthen their bid with this decision, it looks more politically stronger.
On the day when President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy spoke with Oleksandr Ceferin about tougher sanctions on Russia to prevent it from participating in the Euro 2024 draw, this topic was finally agreed upon. We can say that Ukraine received the "blessing of Čeferin". And this is a very important point in this situation.
In addition, such a decision is another drawing of the attention of the world to the war in Ukraine. It is important to do this, because people get used to everything,” Spivakovsky said on the air of the TaToTake Youtube channel.
