00:00I think the mood amongst UEFA nations remains united and very concerted in our determination to attempt to change the
00:09regime that governs FIFA because this was always about more than one person.
00:14I mean, clearly the decisions that Gianni Infantino has taken have been his decisions and lots of them are very
00:19personalized and didn't involve the proper accountability and governance structures of FIFA.
00:24But any change has to be sustainable and lasting. We always knew that things wouldn't just change overnight. That would
00:31be naive.
00:32We knew that there would be a resistance to change as well, of course. But we're on track. We're taking
00:38things step by step, both legally in terms of the political context with an alternative candidate and in terms of
00:45the programme of governance reforms that we need to see.
00:48So Europe at least remains completely united on this. The federations feel very strongly that the leadership we're seeing from
00:55our president and the team is absolutely the right leadership for what faces us ahead.
