It’s not xenophobic. A plane just landed in Italy from Chiba. 50% tested positive and then there are the rest of them that will be exposed on the flight.

It’s common sense to bring in controls.

Internally….why have they suddenly decided now is the time to send their people abroad?

Are you suggesting they are sending over Covid 2.0 ?

Well it’s simple, add the hurdles back to anyone who has been in China for the last 14 days

I don’t understand China here, they are at the beginning of a massive Covid wave and they now start to allow international travel for its citizens?

Something very sinister about this decision.

It took more than enough time to remove the British foot from the neck of India. It’s unsurprising that India recognises oppression when it see it.

I’ve been to Qatar, it’s a great place and I would happily go again.

The World Cup has been great too, been following it on the TV. Absolutely no evidence of any boycotts.

No country is perfect, especially our white western ones who went round the world robbing, raping, murdering and enslaving on an unimaginable industrial scale.

According to Pew research, women are happier in the Middle East than they are in the west.

They don’t care about LGBT issues, it’s contrary to their religion and value system. They are not about to throw their religion under the bus to placate some virtue signalling westerners hell bent on cultural colonialism.

It’s incredibly insulting to other countries around the world that we insist our values matter more than theirs. It’s arrogance based purely on our white privilege.

The 6500 is a misleading number for the Guardian. That is all migrant workers in that period, not just World Cup related.

I’ll let the virtue signallers continue.

Which they wouldn’t anyway.

I do mate. They don’t care what you think.

What makes you thing that the Qatari players are remotely interested? They’re not.

Nonsense, that’s a straight up lie.

Edit: some fucking desperate people quite happy to spread disinformation. Pathetic.

How many deaths?

I don’t think you know what Islam means to them

No chance of that happening

That the US had set a precedent.

I dismissed it because it was irrelevant.

Take a walk, you’re overthinking

It was a rhetorical question with a statement. You tried to shoehorn an argument based on your sympathies. It’s irrelevant. Stop getting so hostile about it.

Nonsense. Your trying to shoehorn your sympathy into a generic question.

The principle being discussed was sovereignty. The reason is irrelevant.

It’s a question around sovereignty. No need to get so abusive.

Do they need to. I thought that the Americans had set the precedent in Pakistan.

Ukraine aren’t winning anything anytime soon.

It’s Turkiye by the way. It’s about time the west started respecting this countries name.

Turkiye don’t give a fuck because they are not backing either side.

Out of interest, what benefit is there to openly backing Ukraine? From what I can see, it’s financially beneficial to deal with Russia at the moment…Turkiye are doing very well out of them
