    'Qatar is a mistake,' says former FIFA President Sepp Blatter

    ZURICH: Sepp Blatter, the former president of FIFA when Qatar was awarded the 2022 World Cup hosting rights in 2010, told Swiss newspaper Tages Anzeiger "Qatar is a mistake," adding that "the choice was bad."
    The Qatar decision has been marred by controversy, including allegations of corruption and human rights violations, since it was first announced.
    He was cleared of fraud by a Swiss court in June.
    The prosecutors have appealed the ruling.
    "Since then, social considerations and human rights are taken into account," he said.
