French Embassy U.S. usfranceintheus On @TheDailyShow , @Trevornoah called the victory." Read Ambassador @GerardAraud 's @French Team 's World Cup win an "African response: Washington, DC, Juty 18, 2018 Sir I watched with great attention your July 17 show, when you spoke of the victory of the French team at the 2018 Fifa World Cup ussiaM final which took place last Sunday. I heard your words about " African viciory", nolhing could be less true. As many players have already steted themselves, their parents may have cume from another country but a great majority af them (all but two out of 23) were horn in France; they were aducated in France; they learned to play soccer in Frunce; they are French citizens. They ure proud of their country, France. The rich and various backgrounds of these players is a refleution of France's diversity France is indeed a cosmupolitan couniry, but every citizen is part of the rench identity and together they belong to the nalion of France. Unlike in the United States of America, France does not rcfer to hs cltizens based on their race, religion or origin. To us, there is no hyphenated identity, roots are an individual renlily. By calling them an African team, it seenns yuu are denying their Frenchness. This, even in jest, legitimizes the ideology which claims whiteness as the only delfinition of being French Finally, the idenkily of French national team should not be defined by people that are not part af it. The Freach national socoer team's identity shauld- and has, as a matter of fact- been definesd as a group of people living togelher, Fighting together, losing or winning together, illustrating in & perfect and beautiful way a part of our national moto : oquality-ndfraternity Yours sincerely Gdrard
