A defiant Pep Guardiola has defended his right to condemn Israel’s attacks on Gaza after being told to
“focus on football” by a Jewish group in Manchester. Manchester City’s manager spoke out earlier in the week and is refusing to be silenced.
“I didn’t say anything special. I don’t feel that. Why should I not express what I feel? Just because I’m a manager,” said Guardiola. “I don’t agree but I respect all opinions. What I said basically is how many conflicts there are right now all around the world. I condemn all of them. If innocent people are killed, I condemn them all – not this country being more than the other one.”
On Tuesday Guardiola named Sudan, Palestine and Ukraine when talking about the killing of innocent victims in conflict. “The genocide in Palestine, what happened in Ukraine, what happened all around the world – in Sudan, everywhere. What happened in front of us? Do you want to see it? It’s our problem as human beings,”
the 55-year-old said.
He also gave a speech in support of Palestinian children at a charity event in Barcelona.
