“Please stop all conflicts. For our children, for our future,” Infantino’s story. Applause in the disease.
Oleg Lysenko
Infantino exacerbated regret over the emergence of a “terrible conflict” in Ukraine.

Gianni Infantino enters. Duty officialdom – sensational statements are unlikely to follow here.

FIFA has suspended membership in complex association organizations. Russia is not among them
It seems that the Russian question will not be discussed today. But it is not exactly.
FIFA has suspended membership in the organization of three associations – the owners, Zimbabwe and Kenya. The question of suspension of membership or exclusion of Russia was not put to the vote.
Oleg Lysenko
Kenya’s FIFA membership has also been suspended. 198 for, 1 against.
Oleg Lysenko
199 – 2 against Zimbabwe. Kenya was next put to the vote.
Oleg Lysenko
The decision against the children has been made. Next vote on Zimbabwe.
Oleg Lysenko
Quick voting is delivered on a mobile device.

So, Russia does not participate in these votings… Let’s look further.
Oleg Lysenko
Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director General of the World Health Organization, spoke before the audience. FIFA President Infantino presented him with a symbolic jersey.
Oleg Lysenko
Russia, of course, also represents itself. The RFU delegation was infected by the secretary general of the organization Alexander Alaev.

This is how it is in Doha. There is a roll call of countries. That’s about it should go to the most pressing issue of the meeting.
Oleg Lysenko
The meeting in Doha is about to begin. According to the protocol, the event starts at 11:00 a.m. applicable time, which corresponds to Moscow. The question of interest to us – the exclusion or suspension of membership in FIFA – must be answered in the first hour of the congress. We wait.

What decision will the FIFA Congress take regarding Russia? Survey
What does your intuition tell you about the outcome of the meeting? We vote. At the same time, we will prove your degree of optimism.

It seems the time has come to study the experience of Israel. He has already changed the confederation – perhaps the RFU should also think about it?
In Russia, the transition from UEFA to Asia is given. The experience of Israel shows that this is possible
