I bring you the Barcelona drama!!! Get in.

The deal will see the DR Congo tourism board promote the country on the sleeve of Barcelona’s shirt, with the slogan ‘RD Congo – Coeur d’Afrique’ [DR Congo – Heart of Africa]. It follows on from similar campaigns by Rwanda and Bostwana in recent years looking to sponsor football teams, while AS Monaco and AC Milan have signed similar agreements with DR Congo.

Meanwhile Swedish Government Minister for International Development Cooperation and Foreign Trade of Sweden, Benjamin Dousa, has spoken about the matter, as one of the sides that sends aid to DR Congo.

“I want to emphasize that not a single Swedish cent should be spent on these priorities. Our aid goes toward food packages, vaccines, and books. We hope that Swedish money won’t be used to pay for priorities like the partnership with Barcelona,” Dousa was quoted by Diario AS.
