Russian attack alert in a city close to the largest nuclear power plant in Europe

Spain and Portugal invited Ukraine to join the joint bid that they are preparing to organize the Soccer Cup in 2030, a project that UEFA supports.

Pavelko defended the capacity that his country had before the Russian aggression to organize very high-level sports competitions, including the European Championship in 2012, whose venues included Donetsk, one of the cities that the pro-Russian groups took in 2014 and where they have just hold an illegal referendum on annexation to Russia.

The leader said he is confident that the large stadium in that city can be used again because the Ukrainian forces “will be victorious” of this war.

The sports leader also commented that this joint candidacy symbolizes the unity of Europe in favor of Ukraine, as well as the usefulness of football for achieving peace, for which he trusted that the rest of the world will support it.
