To avoid corruption it is good for someone to make place for a new one. Dutch would normally support the change. But because they have a bid for a WC, they dare not to be against the president.
Corruption is working so terribly well :( :( :(

How would going against the president effect that bid?

FIFA and all the other confederations also have this rule!

I don't support this rule!
No, it's only UEFA.

No it's not. I know those statutes like the back of my hands.

Read the statutes. FIFA and CAF certainly do.

Yes, you're right, CAF also stipulates that.

Quite odd FIFA doesn't though.

Yerevan to stage 2024 UEFA Futsal Champions League finals in May

https://www.uefa.com/uefafutsalchampion ... ay-finals/

Karen Dermichyan Arena in Yerevan will stage the 2024 UEFA Futsal Champions League finals after the UEFA Executive Committee appointed the Football Federation of Armenia as hosts.

The finals are a four-team knockout event played between the teams that won November's elite round mini-tournaments: holders Mallorca Palma Futsal and fellow former winners Barça, Benfica and Sporting CP. The semi-final draw, at a date and venue to be confirmed, will split the four teams into two ties to be played on Friday 3 May, with the final and third-place play-off two days later.

The 6,900-capacity Karen Dermichyan Arena first opened in 1983 and was revamped in 2008. It has staged a wide variety of sporting events and concerts from ice hockey and boxing to the Chess Olympiad and Junior Eurovision. It will be the first major futsal finals in Armenia, which staged football's U19 EURO in 2019 in Yerevan.

Yerevan will be the third neutral venue for the finals of this competition after Zadar, Croatia – a one-off eight-team event due to COVID in 2021 – and Riga, Latvia (2022). Zaragoza was the venue in 2018 when jointly hosted by Barça and Madrid-based Spanish rivals Inter FS.

Other host cities since the introduction of the four-team finals have been Murcia (2007), Moscow (2008), Ekaterinburg (2009), Lisbon (2010 and 2015), Almaty (2011, 2017 and 2019), Lleida (2012), Tbilisi (2013), Baku (2014), Guadalajara (2016), Barcelona (2020) and Palma de Mallorca (2023). Lisbon also hosted an eight-team final tournament in 2002 to conclude the inaugural season, with the next four editions decided by two-legged finals.

Russian Football Union votes against leaving Uefa despite European ban

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/67773404

The Russian Football Union has voted against leaving Uefa to join the Asian Football Confederation, despite being banned from European football.

Last year Fifa and Uefa banned all Russian teams from their competitions following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

"We unanimously voted against," RFU president Alexander Dyukov said of the proposal.

The RFU said it hopes to continue talks with Uefa about returning to European competition.

"We have decided to continue contacts with Uefa, especially as there is progress," said RFU committee member Mikhail Gershkovich.

"Let's see how the situation develops next year."

In recent months Uefa showed signs of relaxing restrictions on Russia's youth teams, but later abandoned plans to reinstate Russia's under-17 sides to European competition.

Even if the ExCo and Ceferin want to accept them back, they will probably all face a successful motion of no confidence in the Congress if they do.

What you mean a motion of confidence?

The ExCo getting sacked by the Congress?
