China has indefinitely suspended the broadcasting of LaLiga matches, following Kylian Mbappé's controversial comments, according to state television. The Chinese government's decision comes after the club Real Madrid attempted to defend Mbappé's actions, claiming the French forward was exercising his freedom of expression without any ill intent.
However, the Chinese authorities have dismissed this reasoning as inadequate. China Media Group (CMG) has rejected Real Madrid's explanations, stating that the player's remarks "go beyond freedom of expression." This government stance emphasizes that the Madrid club is responsible for the resulting diplomatic and sporting dispute and refuses to entertain any discussion until a satisfactory apology is given.
In addition to the ban on Spanish league matches, the television blackout also includes any content or advertisements associated with Mbappé.
