Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has publicly backed Lamine Yamal following criticism directed at the Barcelona star for displaying a Palestinian flag during the club's championship parade.
“Those who believe that waving a national flag constitutes 'inciting hatred' have either completely lost their minds or are blinded by their own malice,” the politician wrote.
“Lamine simply expressed solidarity with Palestine, a sentiment shared by millions of Spaniards. Another reason to be proud of him,” Sánchez added.
Meanwhile, a mural honoring Yamal has appeared in Gaza, accompanied by the inscription: “Lamine raised the Palestinian flag at a celebration for the whole world to see. He risked his career and future but supported the cause of Palestine.”
