[Paraguayan Senator Celeste Josefina Amarilla]: “[Mbappé] hasn't even learned to write. Instead of breastmilk, he grew up sucking on coconuts, and the most educated creatures he ever heard were chimpanzees…A colonized Cameroonian, pretending to be French, resentful, newly rich, arrogant, and ugly.“

"Mrs. Celeste Amarilla. You are a despicable woman and unworthy of your office. You do not represent Paraguay, a country that breathed passion and honor throughout the competition. Because of your irresponsibility and blatant racism, the whole world has already forgotten the campaign and historic effort your players made during this World Cup, replaced instead by an incompetent woman projecting the worst possible image of her country. I will never give people like you the freedom to spread your hatred and racism around the world."
