The European Parliament voted on Thursday in favor of a resolution calling on the FIFA to help compensate the families of deceased immigrant workers, as well as those who suffered abuses of their rights during the preparations for the World Cup in Qatar.
MEPs also urged the Qatari authorities to carry out a full investigation into the human rights abuses in the run-up to the competition.
The resolution also deplored reports of abuses against community LGBTQ+ in Qatar and called on the country to decriminalize same-sex relationships.
Several MEPs wore the “OneLove” anti-hate armbands, which seven European captains at the World Cup gave up wearing after pressure from FIFA.
The Qatari government did not immediately respond to Reuters requests for comment.
Since FIFA awarded Qatar the hosting of the World Cup in 2010, the country has changed some of its labor laws, and before the event, organizers repeatedly said that everyone was welcome, although Human Rights Watch claimed that LGBT people were detained in the run-up to the tournament.
