The flag of Serbia in the locker room of its national team at the World Cup caused a scandal provoked by representatives of the Kosovar football federation.
The Serbian national football team reportedly displayed the country’s flag, which depicts the territory of the state, including Kosovo. The flag also bears the inscription: “There will be no surrender.”
Kosovo called it a “chauvinistic act” that has no place in sports, especially at the World Cup. The Kosovars called unacceptable the lack of reaction from FIFA and demanded that the organization change its rules, and the Serbs should be punished for their “hateful, xenophobic and genocidal attitude towards Kosovo.”
Kosovo is a partially recognized country located on the territory of Serbia. The Russian Federation does not recognize the independence of the region.
