Manage episode 347868797 series 2978892

Its critics have focused on human rights abuses and the treatment of migrant workers in the construction of tournament stadiums.

The lead author of the study, Sir John Jenkins, a former ambassador with a 35-year diplomatic career in the Middle East, joined Freddie Sayers in the studio to explain.
