French President Emmanuel Macron has strongly condemned the violent disturbances that erupted after Paris Saint-Germain’s (PSG) Champions League victory. His forceful statement declared, «This is not football, this is not sport,» as the nation grapples with the aftermath of the unrest. The primary concern highlighted by the President is the significant number of injured police officers who were on duty during the celebrations.
Macron’s government is reportedly preparing to implement strict measures and guarantee severe punishments for individuals found responsible for the rioting. The president’s words underscore a zero-tolerance approach to such behavior, emphasizing that these actions detract from the spirit of sportsmanship and pose a serious threat to public order and safety.
