00:00Look, there is one thing like every human being no intervene on zero, zero intervene.
00:06It's where we born. We don't decide of that.
00:11Mom and dad decide in certain moments and nine months later we are here.
00:15But we don't decide. I didn't decide to be Catalan.
00:19You don't decide to be, didn't decide to be English.
00:23So that is a reality, the influence.
00:25So I understand completely the people, it is normal, you know,
00:29to be managers for the national team when you were born.
00:32I know we are proud, you know, where we are, where we were born,
00:36where we live, the education that we had.
00:38But the world is so big, so big.
00:41And you have to be open-minded, you know.
00:43I came here to learn from all of you.
00:46Look what happened today all around the world,
00:48in the worst world we have because you believe you are better than the other one.
00:53What happened in Russia and Israel and Ukraine and Gaza and all these places in Africa.
00:59So it's terrible just because we believe we are better than the other one and we are not.
01:03I don't like to just be criticized for just the fact you were born in a place like you didn't intervene, you know.
01:10I'm not guilty to be Catalan, I'm not.
01:12So I just want to be born there.
