When asked about it, Iglesias said: "Honestly, it surprised me. I was on a plane yesterday, and as soon as I landed, I received it. What surprises me is that we are still talking about these things now."

"We come from different places, we are all different, and I think that is precisely our wealth. I think the wealth of our country lies in this diversity, really."

"I know that France is so rich in many ways because it has people from different backgrounds, and these things make me a little sad. I understand he didn't mean any harm, but I think we need to be a bit more careful about this."
