Pep Guardiola support for Palestinian rights

Overview

Football manager Pep Guardiola has issued several public statements advocating for the Palestinian people and calling for international action regarding the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

In an initial video message supporting UNRWA, Guardiola criticized the dehumanization of victims, stating that ‘silence today is a way of taking sides.’ He highlighted the high death toll in Gaza and the obstruction of humanitarian aid, urging the international community to support refugee aid, education, and protection.

Guardiola subsequently expanded his advocacy by urging supporters to participate in a European Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement conference in Barcelona. He argued that ‘genocide does not stop on its own, and peace is not achieved on its own,’ calling for the transformation of solidarity into practical economic, cultural, and academic pressure to end the occupation.
