Blatter must resign as soon as possible: U.K. Prime Minister
By 서지연Published : May 29, 2015 - 22:04
Britain's Prime Minister David Cameron says FIFA president Sepp Blatter must resign and ``the sooner that happens the better.''
Asked about the FIFA scandals at a joint press conference in Berlin with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Cameron said it was ``unthinkable'' that Blatter was the right person to take the world soccer body forward after this week's corruption accusations.
Cameron added, ``Frankly, what we have seen is the ugly side of the beautiful game.''
Merkel called for FIFA to make a clean break with corruption but stopped short of saying that Blatter should resign.
Blatter is running for a fifth, four-year term as FIFA president later Friday against challenger Prince Ali bin al-Hussein of Jordan. Most European nations back the prince but Blatter is expected to win anyway. (AP)
