Qatar Airlines is also a sponsor.
I wonder if both Ronaldo and Pogba will make some kind of protest regarding Qatar's laws on gays.
Imprisonment or possibly the death penalty.
There’s two opposing issues here – 1) Sponsor – pays for the event, so without Sponsor funding there’s probably no tournament. 2) Sports, being sponsored by (unhealthy) products, McDonalds, Coca Cola etc. There’s a ideological mismatch here, however the end result, like it or not, they need each other.
Probably good to see Coca Cola get some backlash or “virtue signalling” medicine of their own – earlier this year it was reported their diversity training materials included guidance to “try to be less white.”
