Star Israeli-national soccer player Dan Mori banned from Abu Dhabi due to nationality. Dutch politician slams 'cowardly' decision.
The premier Dutch soccer team Vitesse left for training in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) this year - without its best defender, after UAE authorities refused to allow him into the country. The reason: he is Israeli.
Spokeswoman Esther Bal told a Dutch radio station that the team had originally been given permission to bring Dan Mori - but that the permission was withdrawn just 24 hours before the team's arrival in the Islamic state.
DutchNews.nl reports Monday that Mori supported the move, in a bid not to "make waves" and cause a political snafu.
"Of course we wanted the team to be complete and it is very irritating for Mori that he is not with them but the interests of the team are paramount," Bal stated. "Mori said so himself. And as a football club, we steer clear of politics and religion." Bal added that canceling the trip in a show of solidarity would have delayed the team's training for the second half of the season.
