Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Pavel Klimkin said this during a press conference in Kyiv, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports with reference to the department’s press service.
“We are talking with various federations... We are also talking, I can say, with various fan organizations about how they can raise various political issues by boycotting this championship or clearly expressing their position while in Russia,” Klimkin said.
Let us remind you that the matches of the 2018 World Cup will be held from June 14 to July 15, 2018 in 11 cities of Russia.
As PolitNavigator previously reported, the National Public Television and Radio Company of Ukraine decided not to broadcast the draw for the group stage of the World Cup.
