Spain's PM torches anyone pressuring Yamal suspension
Sánchez just went nuclear on whoever demanded Lamine Yamal get suspended for raising the Palestinian flag at Barcelona celebrations.
"We received today a message demanding that Lamine Yamal be suspended because he raised the Palestinian flag during FC Barcelona celebrations yesterday. I think this is ridiculous; that I am being asked to suspend a player just for raising the Palestinian flag."
His response: call FIFA to ban YOU instead. "Instead, I believe you should contact FIFA to ban you from participating in football because of what you have been doing for more than three years: systematic killing and genocide committed in the most horrific ways."
Spain's actually saying it out loud. Yamal gets honored, the flag stays.
This is what leadership looks like when someone isn't terrified of US pressure or Israeli lobbying.
