Qatar’s FIFA World Cup promotes LGBT unity
Qatar is used to running things in two ways, one addressing the West with values that are contrary to Islam and divine laws, and the other with radical ideas to address the inside and Muslim societies, in a double-dealing that reveals Qatar’s mastery of politics and the immoral Machiavellian interests game.
This confirms what Doha has pledged to LGBT and FIFA associations, to the extent that it allowed them to raise their logo through the 2022 World Cup. LGBT associations announced on their website on Twitter that there will be celebrations inside FIFA for the World Cup in Qatar with the slogan “The Unity of the Gay Community”.
The LGBT Web site said that June would be a celebration for the LGBT community, noting that a celebration was held today at FIFA headquarters to welcome the World Cup, to be held in Qatar.
In addition to how FIFA ensures the presence of gays in Qatar, the 2022 World Cup will be a celebration of the injured and their unity, the LGBT Twitter account said. And they made a hashtag for it: Pride 2022.
However, despite these Qatari manipulations in favor of its interests, doubts still surround the tournament, amidst international concerns about the number of fans who will be able to attend the tournament, in addition to greater concerns about Qatar’s handling of these fans.
Despite Doha’s attempts to offer reassuring statements from time to time, the British newspaper, The Guardian, says that uncertainty prevails over the World Cup to be held in Qatar. These concerns range from human rights to logistical and practical matters, such as how many fans will attend the tournament? What kind of treatment will they find there?
According to the Guardian, the first question is the most pressing and there is no definitive answer to the matter, as the signs seem to indicate a clear trend and the fact that the World Cup of football fans in Doha seems questionable, explaining that as of the time of writing this report, almost two weeks ago, FIFA had sold 800,000 match tickets to the masses. And this, out of 3.1 million seats, is just over a quarter of the total. And 2.5 million tickets were sold to fans in Russia four years ago, with a capacity of just over three million.
The Guardian argues that Qatar has a long way to go if it hopes to find numbers of fans like Russia, or even get close to it.
The British newspaper noted that at the end of this month FIFA will reveal the results of the second tranche of sales, pointing out that the board of directors announced the fact that it received 23.5 million ticket requests as part of this process, but observers noted that it does not require anyone to buy, and that tickets for the knockout matches can be sold several times, with ticket holders leaving their teams..
Since Qatar launched its online portal in March, there has been confusion about what kind of rooms are available at what price.
Neighbors said it was often futile to look for promised accommodations for $80 a night. The price of an unwanted Van Village Cabin starts at $200 a night, and AirBnB-style apartments cost about $1,000. It remains unclear about turnout, but it may be clear in the second phase of sales.
The calculations of football fans in Europe predict that this will be the most expensive World Cup for fans traveling by a narrow margin. According to its figures, the cost of staying in three group matches is €2,770, compared to €1,000 during Russia’s 2018 war. He said staying in the entire championship would be more than 6,500 euros.
