苏格兰议会议员敦促欧足联暂停白俄罗斯国家足球队参加国际比赛,
Members of the Scottish Parliament are urging UEFA to suspend Belarus’s national football team from international competitions, citing human rights abuses and the country’s support for Russia’s war in Ukraine.
这一呼吁得到了18名立法者的支持,包括前第一任部长Hummza Yousaf的支持,在10月12日苏格兰和白俄罗斯之间的世界杯决赛中提前了一步。
The call, backed by 18 lawmakers including former first minister Humza Yousaf, comes ahead of a World Cup qualifier between Scotland and Belarus on October 12.
他们争辩说,允许白俄罗斯参加竞争与欧洲足联的公平和人权价值观相抵触,特别是考虑到该政权镇压持不同政见者和监禁政治活动家。
They argue that allowing Belarus to compete contradicts UEFA’s values of fairness and human rights, especially given the regime’s repression of dissent and imprisonment of political activists.
象征性的姿态包括计划向两名因政治活动而坐牢的白俄罗斯粉丝送上苏格兰签名的球队衬衫。
A symbolic gesture includes plans to send signed Scottish team shirts to two Belarusian fans serving prison terms for political activism.
虽然欧洲足联禁止白俄罗斯主办针对乌克兰的比赛和限制俱乐部比赛, 但它没有驱逐国家团队,
While UEFA has banned Belarus from hosting matches and restricted club games against Ukraine, it has not expelled the national team, a decision critics say undermines its human rights commitments.
