A story that has sparked a lot of discussion. Yesterday evening, on the sidelines of the Champions League clash between Paris Saint-Germain and Atlético Madrid at the Parc des Princes, the Collectif Ultras Paris deployed a large tifo to support the Palestinian people with a strong message: “Free Palestine, war on the ground, but peace in the world. Since then, the French political class was quick to seize this, and in particular the Minister of the Interior Bruno, who denounced this this morning on South Radio while UEFA indicated that it would not take sanctions.
“A call for peace between peoples”
And while the PSG and the FFF are summoned tomorrow by Othman Nasrou, Secretary of State in charge of Citizenship and the Fight against discrimination, the CUP wanted to break the silence. The residents of Virage Auteuil explain that “in no case was this tifo intended to convey a message of hatred, on the contrary, the message which accompanied it is explicit and is a call for peace between peoples,” perhaps we first read, the latter affirming that at no time had PSG, owned by Qatar, intervened in this. In addition, they explain that the tifo “was carried out entirely in a gymnasium in the Paris suburbs”. This sensitive subject has pushed us to make our arrangements in advance so as not to harm our club.” The message has the merit of being clear.
