Former France international footballer Lilian Thuram has accused President of the United States Donald Trump of spreading “racism”.
Thuram has been heavily involved as an anti-racism campaigner since he quit playing, setting up a foundation a decade ago.
Speaking in Rennes, at the National Conference of Citizenship, he hit out at the rhetoric of Trump, who recently made the news for allegedly branding El Salvador, Haiti and certain African nations as “s***hole countries.”
"Trump is always seeking confrontation: blacks, whites, non-whites. Good countries, countries that are less good. He's drawn a line between colours. Them and us.
