Can you share examples where sport or more particularly rugby has been used to foster peace? The participation of the Libyan National Rugby Team in the Arab 7’S Championship (February 2021) where the team was made up of the 2 “war” regions East and West.

In this sense, I host several conferences, each year, on the occasion of the International Day of Sport.
