The US has appealed to the Australian Prime Minister regarding five Iranian female footballers.
Modern.az reports that he made a post about this on his “X” account.
“Australia is making a terrible humanitarian mistake by allowing the forced return of Iran's women's national football team to their country. If they are sent back, they will most likely be killed. Mr. Prime Minister, do not do this, grant them asylum. If you do not, the US will accept them. Thank you for your attention to this matter,” – Trump stated.
It should be recalled that five members of Iran's women's national football team refused to sing the national anthem before their Asian Cup group stage match against South Korea. The players appealed to the Australian police to preempt the impending danger. A chaotic situation arose in the hotel lobby as negotiations continued. At this time, individuals associated with the Islamic Republic of Iran entered the area to search for the female footballers. According to eyewitnesses, five female footballers fled the hotel, and individuals associated with the Iranian regime pursued them.
According to information, the female footballers are currently under the control of the Australian police.
