Matthew Knott Foreign Affairs Minister Penny Wong has accused Greens politicians of collaborating with violent pro-Palestine protesters and inciting attacks on Labor MPs’ offices that have led to public servants being injured, a claim rejected by the Greens as a false smear. In fiery scenes at Senate estimates yesterday, Wong accused Opposition Leader Peter Dutton of acting recklessly and undermining efforts to convince China to abide by international law by calling for Australia to consider withdrawing from the International Criminal Court. IT APPEARS SHE CONSIDERS IT RECKLESS TO RAISE SUCH AN IMPORTANT ISSUE DIRECTLY. I BELIEVE THERE IS AMPLE EVIDENCE OVER CONSIDERABLE ME CHINA DOES WHAT IS BEST FOR CHINA WITHOUT TACTICAL CONCERNS ABOUT ITS BEHAVIOUR AND AUSTRALIA SEEMS ANXIOUS ABOUT TRADE WITHOUT PROPER REGARD FOR PRESENT AND FUTURE SECURITY. ON MY OBSERVATIONS OVER 40 YEARS WITH FEW EXCEPTIONS SUCH AS DENG ZIOPENG HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY THUS IN THEIR BEHAVIOUR Wong later revealed the government would ban Israeli settlers regarded as extremist from receiving visas to travel to Australia, responding to a call first made by Labor MP Julian Hill in January. THERE IS NO MENTION OF WHETHER THE SAME PROCEDURE AS TO SPEED AND DETAIL OF INVESTGATION WILL APPLY. ON WHOSE JUDGEMENT WILL THE EXTREMISM BE BASED. SHE NOT BE LESS THAN AS FOR RECENT URGENT ISSUES OF VISAS Asked during the hearings about restrictions on extremist settlers travelling to Australia, Wong said: ‘‘ We will deny anyone identified as an extremist settler a visa to travel to Australia, which is in line with the approaches taken by like-minded countries.’’ DITTO. THAT IS WHICH COUNTRIES VIEWS WERE CONSIDERED AND FOLLOWED FOR THE RECENT URGENT ISSUE OF VISAS TO PALESTINIANS WILL DOCUMENTS BE PRODUCED INCLUDING WHICH WAS FOLLOWED The United States and United Kingdom last year imposed visa restrictions on individuals believed to be involved in undermining peace, security and stability in the West Bank, including extremist settlers. DITTO. Questioned by Greens senator Jordon Steele-John about whether the government had applied double standards by not imposing sanctions on Israel over its conduct in the war in Gaza, Wong said: ‘‘ It is double standards to engage in violent and aggressive protests and incite them and think that you’re doing something about peace.

Today, the Court of Justice of the European Union ruled that some FIFA transfer rules breach EU laws, specifically those related to international football transfers. This verdict comes after Lassana Diarra's 2015 dispute with Lokomotiv Moscow. The ruling may grant players greater freedom to navigate their careers and alter the landscape of professional football transfers, echoing the landmark Jean-Marc Bosman case of 1995. #FIFPRO #Law #Sports #ECJ #Diarra #FIFA #Sportnlaw

Sharing my latest article on how mega-sporting events, in this case the FIFA World Cup, can create a fast-track human rights 'legacy'. Contrast the 'legacy' process to that of progressive realisation etc. While this is still a human rights work in progress, I argue that such mega-sporting events produce significant human rights imprints, which further augments the notion that no country should be excluded from such events. https://lnkd.in/dPKYhV9n The article is published in volume 41 of the Wisconsin International Law Journal #humanrightslaw #sportslaw #FIFA #businessandhumanrights

Here is an obvious question that remains taboo: Why does Kenya enjoy impunity in terms of international sanctions despite its fake performers galore?

The International Anti-Doping Forum "Clean Sport Without Borders" was held on September 5-6 in Raubichi, Belarus. This is the first such large-scale international anti-doping event in the CIS countries. The Forum brought together more than 500 participants from Belarus, Russia, Brazil, Kazakhstan, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and the Republic of South Africa. The Forum was organized by the Russian Anti-Doping Agency RUSADA, the National Anti-Doping Agency of the Republic of Belarus, the Russian Olympic Committee, the National Olympic Committee of the Republic of Belarus, the Ministry of Sports and Tourism of the Republic of Belarus, and the Ministry of Sports of the Russian Federation. During the forum, I gave a speech on the specifics of resolution disputes involving Belarusian athletes in arbitration. The main points of my speech: -sports arbitration is accessible in the Republic of Belarus; - in order to protect your rights, you need to contact the right lawyer in a timely manner; - the parties to the dispute need to take into account the human factor of the arbitrator; - the arbitrator needs to take into account the human factor of the athlete; - everyone needs to think on the development of sports in the Republic of Belarus. #arbitration #sportsarbitration #disputeresolution

It is not possible to host a major sports event today without having a discussion about human rights. But whose rights? Whose values? Who chooses? Sometimes rights come into conflict, with no room to compromise. Dr Clifford Bob, author of 'Rights as Weapons: Instruments of Conflict, Tools of Power' , also Professor and Chair of Political Science at Duquesne University, is my guest for a discussion about the collision of sport, politics and rights after a week of headlines since FIFA awarded Saudi Arabia the 2034 Men's World Cup. #football #FIFA #Saudi2034 #FIFAWorldCup #HumanRights #sport #sportsdiplomacy #sportspolitics #politics
