Pelé published a message Wednesday urging Vladimir Putin to stop the Russian invasion of Ukraine, which has resulted in thousands of deaths and displaced millions. ()
The 81-year-old Pelé, who is undergoing treatment for cancer, said he published his message to the Russian president on the same day Ukraine바카라s national team beat Scotland 3-1 in a playoff that took it a step closer to the soccer World Cup. Ukraine will face Wales on Sunday for a spot in Qatar.
바카라Today Ukraine tries to forget, at least for 90 minutes, the tragedy that engulfs their country. To compete for a World Cup place is already a difficult task 바카라 almost an impossible one with so many lives at stake,바카라 the Brazilian great said in a post on Instagram that came with a plea to Putin: 바카라Stop the invasion. There바카라s absolutely no justification for this continued violence.바카라
바카라When we met in the past and exchanged smiles accompanied by a long handshake, I never thought one day we would be as divided as we are now,바카라 the three-time World Cup winner posted. 바카라The power to stop this conflict is on your hands. The same ones I shook in Moscow at our last meeting in 2017.바카라
