That's right. Just would be curious what governments of Islamic states say about it.

Yeah, but isn't that hypocritical?

I'm wondering what China's potential BRICS partners like Saudi Arabia and Egypt and possibly others say. I mean, Islam is the state religion these countries, and China declares that "illegal religious activities." Can someone enlighten me?

It’s over’: World Cup kiss becomes Spanish football’s #MeToo moment

Jenni Hermoso receives ovation at Madrid match as hashtag #SeAcabo is embraced on social media in wake of Rubiales scandal

Majority of coaches on Spain’s women’s team resign as Luis Rubiales vows to fight on

In a statement, eleven coaches and technical staff said they would resign in protest against the 46-year-old’s defiant stance about the kiss, which Hermoso has said was unwanted.

“The undersigned, in light of the unacceptable attitude and statements made by the head of the federation, have taken the decision to resign from their positions,” the statement said.

USA national team player Alex Morgan has come out in support of Jenni Hermoso, saying she was “disgusted” by how the Spain forward had been treated.

Zero tolerance policies suck. There has to be some room for forgiveness.

That may or may not be true as a generic statement, but in the given case it's far too late for forgiveness. This man crossed more than one line.

In that case the Spanish federation appears to be Rubiales alone. In the meantime he has been suspended by the world federation, and with the pressure from Spanish politics and all tbe others we can hope that he 'will be resigned' soon.

Fifa suspends Luis Rubiales from all football-related activity over Hermoso kiss

A Fifa statement said: “The chairman of the Fifa Disciplinary Committee, Jorge Ivan Palacio (Colombia), in use of the powers granted by article 51 of the Fifa Disciplinary Code (FDC), has decided today to provisionally suspend Mr. Luis Rubiales from all football-related activities at national and international level.

@N1cknamed

but it seems odd to me that this mans life should be ruined over a kiss.

This was not 'a kiss', this was sexual assault.

@abbadon420

Maybe she wouldn't accept it, but the public probably would.

So violating an individual's rights is acceptable as long as 'the public' accepts it?

And if so, who is 'the public'? I feel I'm also part of the public in that case, and don't accept it.

Instead they've escalated the accident into a lawsuit and made a public enemy of themselves.

No, not 'they'. It was just him, can't see any wrongdoing by her.

@N1cknamed

Not to mention that we have no clue about their private interactions.

What a bullshit. There's no 'private interaction.' Such a comment is as unacceptable as this so-called president.

I guess violations of human rights like the one we have here happen a million times a day across the globe, although mostly not in the public sphere. Sexual harassment is not 'blown out of proportion', it has to have consequences as any crime.

Spain striker Borja Iglesias steps down from Spain's (male) national team after Rubiales’ refusal to resign

Real Betis striker Borja Iglesias has announced his intention to step down from the Spanish national soccer team, following statements made by Spanish Football Federation president Luis Rubiales and his refusal to resign in the wake of the scandal caused by a non-consensual kiss with midfielder Jenni Hermoso after the victory of the women’s team at the 2023 World Cup. “I am sad and disappointed,” Iglesias said, while declaring solidarity with his “teammate” Hermoso.

I agree on what you say about the ways PDFs are used today, but back in the 1982 the world was different. Back then it was a useful thing imho.

A 17-year-old boy said border guards forced him and other survivors to rape two girl survivors after the guards had executed another migrant who refused to rape another survivor.

@BartsBigBugBag

These aren’t protests by the masses, these are “protests” by investors upset that China is de-risking the real estate market exactly to prevent a Lehman style crash.

These investor are 'visited' by police telling them to shut up, supposedly because Beijing gets nervous about its economy.

The measures taken by China in 2020 in the property market (especially regarding the liquidity ratios) were correct, but they came far too late. It is another example why a centrally planned economy can't work and is bound to produce devastating effects in the long run. ('In the west' there are similar liquidity rules in financial services, but they aren't always applied due to massive lobbying activities as we could once again see recently in tbe U.S. with the failure of Silicon Valley Bank and others.)

Having a low youth unemployment means your youth are either not getting educated, or are being forced to work during their education.

Please stop posting such garbage. China has a lot of well educated young people, but they find no jobs.

I don't know why you see a paywall, I can perfectly access it for free. But just pasted the entire article into the body.

their people are starting to get paid a bit better than other more easily exploited people in some other countries

That is hopefully the good part of the story, but a growing number of Chinese don't find work at all, especially the youth. The government even refuses to release the unemployment data.

Yeah, Country Garden, another major Chinese player in the the market, has failed to pay bond holders last week. China's real estate market has been in trouble for many years, leaving many homeowners with unfinished development despite high downpayments.
