Yolanda Paredes, mother of former Ecuadorian Vice President Jorge Glas, has called on Paraguay's Ministry of Foreign Affairs to publicly condemn French footballer Kylian Mbappé. Paredes alleges that Mbappé wielded "political power" during the Champions League match between Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain.

Paredes, who is also a politician, stated that Mbappé's actions on the field demonstrated an abuse of power. She believes the Ministry of Foreign Affairs should issue a statement addressing this alleged misuse of influence. The context for her demand appears to stem from her son's ongoing legal and political situation, though the direct link between Mbappé's performance and Glas's circumstances remains unclear from the provided text.

The Paraguayan newspaper ABC Color reported on Paredes's demand, highlighting her call for an official pronouncement from the nation's diplomatic body. The article does not include a response from Mbappé, Real Madrid, PSG, or the Paraguayan Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
