In the tweet with which he published the photo of his players with their mouths closed, the German national team also explained the reasons for its protest against FIFA: "We wanted to use our captain's armband to defend the values we have in the German national team: diversity and mutual respect.Together with other nations, we wanted our voice to be heard.
It was not about making a political statement, human rights are not negotiable. This should be taken for granted, but it still isn't. That's why this message is so important to us.
Denying us the band is equivalent to denying us a voice. We stand our ground."
It wasn’t about making a political statement – human rights are non-negotiable. That should be taken for granted, but it still isn’t the case. That’s why this message is so important to us.
