The Saudi 2034 bid introduced by two 13 year olds.
We should always be clear that criticism of the tournament is never about the Saudi population, who deserve the joy of football.
It’s always about the policies of the government and the risks to fans, workers and activists.

🧵At midnight, Friday night, FIFA published both the assessment of whether it complied with its human rights policy in Qatar, and the evaluation of the 2030 and 2034 bids. Timing says it all!
