⚽ Čeferin also discussed his "sympathy" for Crystal Palace; why European games in foreign countries are a bad idea; and the current state of UEFA relations with FIFA.

We've also published the full transcript of the interview here ⬇️

💣 Čeferin expanded on his concern about the state of the world — "not been as dangerous since the ’30s of the last century” — in a sprawling interview that touched on: Israel and Gaza, Russia, modern Balkan history, Hungary and political correctness.

💥 Čeferin is adamant that UEFA was making a global humanitarian point, not a political one, with its recent "Stop Killing Children" slogan — and he tore into critics who attacked the message from staunchly pro-Israeli and pro-Palestinian sides alike.
