Israeli envoy opposed to Ahmadinejad World Cup visit

Berlin - Israel's ambassador to Germany, Shimon Stein, called on the German government Friday to prevent Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad from paying a visit during the World Cup. 'Allowing him into the country would make a mockery of the World Cup motto 'A Time to Make Friends,'' Stein said in an interview with the newspaper Mannheimer Morgen. 'He has excluded himself from the international community with his outbursts of hatred and therefore does not belong in the civilized world,' the ambassador added. The Iranian president has repeatedly cast doubt on the Holocaust and questioned the right of Israel to exist. German Interior Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said in April that Ahmadinejad would be welcome to visit Germany, where Iran is due to be one of 32 teams playing in the World Cup beginning June 9. 'We want to be good hosts,' the minister said the time. The Iranian government has not indicated whether the president has any plans to visit Germany. © 2006 dpa - Deutsche Presse-Agentur
