Thanks for joining us, Mr. Prime Minister.
Thank you very much.
So you had the World Cup a few years ago here. It was very widely covered around the world, and part of the coverage, maybe the majority of the coverage, was not about soccer, football. It was about your country and how it was, you know, needed to come into line with the social mores of the West, etc. There was a lot of lecturing to your country about the way that you live. Did you feel that?
Well, it's unfortunate, you know, there are... The whole purpose of hosting the World Cup is to bring the world together in that country, to put the country in the spotlight about the football, about the tournament and about people coming together. Unfortunately, countries and some NGOs try to use this as an opportunity to attack
on values of the society itself, on the values of the country, of the community, by using it as an opportunity to change these values and to impose their own values on our country and our people. That's something that was expected from our side that we will be attacked. We will be hearing a lot of lectures about values and things that are not belongs to us.
And basically, our decision from the beginning that we don't need to change the country for one month tournament. And I cannot change the value of a whole society and impose on them values that I don't believe in. And it's against every principle in our society, against the principles of Islam, against the principles of Christianity as well.
And that's basically, we said very clear, we respect everybody who's coming here as long as they are respecting the laws in that country, as you are expecting from the Qataris when they visit any of your countries in Europe, to respect your laws. And basically that's what we want from the people. Anything happen in their personal life, it's their personal life.
But nothing should happen in public against the laws of the state of Qatar. And we will never change. The problem that those countries and NGOs put a lot of efforts in demonizing this World Cup in order to impose their values, yet there were many things happening around the world, and they are just turning a blind eye.
If they put some efforts and energy on those real issues that affecting the human lives around the world, It would be much better than the waste investment that was in campaigns against the country to change its values, to impose new values which are not even related to us.
