Romain Molina wrote that Kylian Mbappé's statement, published by Interconnected Ventures, his holding company chaired by his mother, did not ease tensions in China. He indicated that the text was rather perceived as an attempt to preserve economic interests, and that the absence of any mention of Mao Zedong as well as the use of the term "clumsiness" had sparked criticism. According to him, many messages referred to "betrayal" and reprisals were expected to continue: Mbappé's accounts on Chinese social networks, including Weibo, could no longer post due to a "violation of community rules." Molina added that at Real Madrid, they did not understand why the statement had been issued by the holding company rather than by the club, which would have likely had more experience in handling this situation. #Mbappé #Chine #RealMadrid (translated)
