Political protest issued at Qatar Cup over LGBTQIA+ crackdown

BUT Qatar Cup he was captured by political protests in the stands without reprisals from FIFA. This is different from other World Cups where the organization has vetoed this topic. A controversial point of the organization was the use of symbols to support the cause. LGBTQIA+ is, yes, the object of repression, according to FIFA, due to a communication failure.

In England 6v2 Iran, the Iranian crowd had a large flag and shirts with the slogan “Women’s lives are free”. During the anthem, the players stopped singing and the audience in the stands booed. Already in Denmark 0 x 0 Tunisia, African fans wore scarves with the inscription “Free Palestine”. In both cases, the organization was inactive.

“I would like to express my condolences to all the families of those killed in Iran. We want them to know that we are with them and on their side, and that we share their pain,” said Iranian captain Ehsan Haysafi before the tournament. It was the password that turned the team’s game into a milestone in support of the women’s freedom movement in the Persian country.

At previous World Cups, such protests were suppressed. In Brazil, the Organizing Committee’s security service ordered the flags bearing political slogans to be lowered. The same thing happened in Russia. FIFA has made it clear that such demonstrations in the stands are prohibited.

O UOL asked FIFA if the organization’s position had changed in relation to other World Cups. There was still no answer.

In comparison, items related to the LGBTQIA+ community caused problems. First, the American journalist Grant Wahl tried to enter the stadium in a T-shirt with a rainbow symbol and was stopped. He was soon released, but the organization was unable to stop the repression. In Wales 1 to 1 US, Welsh fans’ hats, also adorned with a rainbow, failed Qatar.

Products are made by the country’s football federation. “The Welsh Football Association is extremely disappointed by reports that members of our fan base, including federation staff, have been asked to remove or discard their rainbow hats in front of the Ahman bin Ali Stadium,” the federation said in a statement. “The federation will analyze these incidents and discuss this matter directly with FIFA.”

Later, the Brazilian journalist also had problems. Yesterday morning (22), Victor Pereira took to social media to report that he was approached by local fans and police after confusing the Pernambuco flag, which features a rainbow, with a rainbow movement.

The report states that FIFA did not provide guidance on blocking images related to the LGBTQIA+ universe, but acknowledged that there was a communication issue with stadium security. There was an instruction to increase the release of these items.

The dollar continues to reflect the political scenario

Yesterday, financial agents evaluated the opposite decision of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) regarding the so-called secret budget. In addition, a decision was made by STF Minister Gilmar Méndez to issue an injunction that would exclude the Bolsa Família from the spending cap rule, with investors trying to understand how this measure would affect the processing of the transitional PEC in the Chamber of Deputies. Oh this PEC!!!!

Since he is an exchange investor, any reading that the budget will be exceeded or become more flexible will negatively affect the exchange market, whether through the PEC or in any other way. We will continue with volatility today.

Looking beyond, the US Central Bank (Fed), although slowing down the pace of monetary tightening at its December meeting, issued a tougher-than-expected statement warning that its fight against inflation was not yet over, raising fears that rising US interest rates will push the world’s largest economy into recession.

The currency market continues to react to political news. The voting on the PEC is saved for today. It is expected that it will indeed be reviewed to open the way tomorrow for discussions on the 2023 budget.

Yesterday, the spot price closed the selling day at R$5.3103.

For today on the calendar we will have an index of consumer confidence in the eurozone. Good luck and good luck in business!!

Germany sentenced Russian to life imprisonment for political murder by order of Moscow - 12/15/2021
BRUSSELS, DECEMBER 19 (ANSA). European Union countries reached a political agreement on Monday (19) to impose a natural gas price ceiling of 180 euros per megawatt hour (MWh). The main sources of income for Russia and the minimization of the use of energy as a weapon by the regime of Vladimir Putin.

The agreement was approved by a supermajority at a ministerial meeting of member states in Brussels, Belgium, after months of discussions about the best way to contain the rise in natural gas prices in the bloc caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. .

The value set by the countries is well below the proposal made by the European Commission, the EU’s executive body, in November: 275 EUR/MWh. However, the countries leading the cap campaign were in favor of an even lower limit, around 100 EUR/MWh.

Germany, always wary of price controls, voted in favor of 180 euros, while Austria and the Netherlands, also skeptical of the cap, abstained. Hungary, the most pro-Russian country in the EU, voted against.

The instrument will enter into force on 15 February, but only if natural gas prices on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange exceed 180 euros/MWh for three consecutive days. In addition, the difference compared to a number of global benchmarks should be more than 35 euros.

Italy, the EU’s biggest supporter of the ceiling, has claimed responsibility for the measure. “This is a victory for Italy, which believed and worked for us to reach this agreement,” Environment and Energy Minister Gilberto Picetto tweeted.

“This is a victory for Italian and European citizens who demand energy security,” he added.

Currently, the gas price in Amsterdam is around 110 EUR/MWh, which is already a reflection of the agreement in Brussels – in August the figure even broke the barrier of 340 EUR/MWh.

However, Russia has already threatened to stop exports to countries that adhere to the ceiling. (ANSA).
