Sergiy Palkin is aware that FIFA is too loyal to be put to the extreme, as it impudently invaded Ukraine.

General Director of Donetsk Shakhtar Sergiy Palkin sued FIFA for allowing Russia to hold world championship. Already at that time, the aggressor country annexed Crimea and paid back part of the Donbass, but the FIFA supporters did not call for the annual sanctions. The very fact, according to Palkin's thought, having untied the hands of Putin, helped the crooked dictator to become uncaring.

" See, what has become far away, and become aware that 2018 will be a great, great pardon. Putin robbed a mustache in Crimea and checked the reaction of European organizations, but there was no (great) reaction.

This is one of the reasons why there were 24 fierce ones, if the stench invaded Ukraine. Tse pov'yazanі іstorії. Yakby in 2014, there was a strong reaction from the side of the entire European Union, such organizations, like FIFA, from the whole world, it is possible that the war would not have happened. But I tell you 100%, since FIFA allowed Russia to hold the world championship in 2018, Putin is even more careless and respectful, what yoga is correct, what wine can work more and more successes.

How can you play a friendly match with Iran, if Iran sells drones to the aggressor, how to bomb our territory, our people and our houses? Why don't you have more comments about this story?

I don’t know what else Russia needs to do, so that FIFA reacts with proper rank. The whole world is guilty of saying FIFA: Come on, lads, let's change it"

FIFA dіє mayzhe yak monopolist. You don’t know any kind of people, you know how. You can't know a person, how could you tell me. We can’t know a person, if she could sit with us and say:.

" FIFA will require new reforms, because those that are being brought up at once, their reaction to war, is the wrong way, as the global organization is guilty of action"

If Palkin is afraid that Russia cannot be defeated by FIFA, then the aggressor power will be allowed to restore its power to world football.

" " Because it is necessary for us to fight on all directions, and not only for soldiers on the battlefield. This was the decision that we scored in FIFA. Ale, as you can see, there is no solution,"
