The Burning Session?!
The Burning Session?!
The CNN was the first to ask delegates questions. They asked how Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and UAE could co-host the World Cup better than Qatar.
The delegate of Qatar said “We 3 countries can host the
world cup better than Qatar. We have more economic
and what about the cup being played in the winter. We have more suitable
climate here and we are trying to abolish the kafala
system completely and its almost done. “ The press replied, “There is no point of trying even Qatar is trying to tell me
what you are going to do.” After this the delegate of Saudi Arabia was speechless. This wasn’t possible without the help
of the head of press.
Next, it was The
Russian times’ to speak. The Russian times first asked the delegate of Qatar
“You are violating the Human Rights and you there is a lot of bribery. What do
you have to say about this ?’ The
delegate replied “Human rights violation?
This isn’t a human right violation. We
are just making them work for more time and being little strict probably. And no one can interfere in the way
it functions.” The press replied “Hmm, okay. What about the bribery” The
delegate was speechless. Next, the press
asked the president of CONCACAF “why are you supporting Qatar hosting the 2022
world cup?” The president replied with great confidence and was on a way
leaving the press speechless but then the head of press interrupted and asked: “the
president of CONCACAF do you even know what CONCACAF stands for ?” He replied
“actually no, but this is not what is
important” the head of press interrupted again “you are supposed to answer to
the press not enlighten them” then the president was speechless and then the secretary general asked when his birthday
was. His answer was “I don’t know when it is but my wife does know” then the
secretary general asked him for the name of his wife. He replied, “I don’t know I call her darling” then
everyone in the room started applauding.
Now it was time for the heads to ask questions. They first
asked the president of AFC about the number of countries in it. He replied “I
don’t know which are they but I think I remember the number of countries. I
guess it is 115” the answer was 47. Next,
they moved to the president of OFC. It was again the same question. He didn’t
know any of it. He specified that he himself could host a World Cup and they
have enough money for it. The press told that your statement isn’t true and
showed them the source. Next, it was time for Gianni Infantino. The press asked “who were you with last night?’ He didn’t know.
Then the press told him that he was in the white house with Trump.
The press was lit.
