In a statement, the federation said that it would take the “necessary legal action” and told the female players that “playing for the national team is an obligation on any member of the federation called upon to do so”.
I’ve been touched in an inappropriate place when I didn’t want to be more than once. I just said I didn’t appreciate it, the person touching me apologized and that was it. I think it’s absolute insanity to demand someones life to be ruined over something like that. People simply make bad judgement calls sometimes.
That’s in response to the calls for resignation. He just wants to keep his job.
“the person touching me apologized”
Important part missing from this puzzle; any acknowledgment or apology from the leader of an organization sexually harassing women he has power over.
I’m pretty certain he has already publicly apologized though. Not to mention that we have no clue about their private interactions.
Again, this doesn’t seem like something that requires international attention. I believe the two of them could figure it out themselves just fine.
