[EX Q]: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Matthieu Bastareaud is Neutral . In a statement issued in France by his Stade Francais club  20-year-old center Matthieu Bastareaud said he lied to Wellington police last Sunday when he said four or five men had attacked him after returning home late from a bar.
 "I have to return to the events in New Zealand " Bastareaud said. "I owe the truth to everybody. On Saturday evening  I went back to the hotel after drinking too much. I fell in my room  I hit a table and I snicked my cheekbone."
 Bastareaud added that he panicked and was afraid of being axed from the French team.
 "I didn't want to shock my family. I freaked out and I dug myself deeper into a hole " he added.
 The admission wasn't a total surprise to New Zealand government officials and police  many of whom had doubted Bastareaud's version of events from the outset.
 Wellington city mayor Kerry Prendergast said Friday that several French players and possibly the French team coach and doctor were likely to have known that Bastareaud's claims to have been assaulted were untrue.
 The New Zealand Rugby Union expressed "outrage" that Bastareaud's claim had "cast a negative light on rugby  Wellington and New Zealand.
 In Paris  the French Rugby Federation said it will begin disciplinary proceedings against Bastareaud. The FFR said in statement it was "shocked by the player's lies" and apologized to the New Zealand Rugby Union.

[EX Q]: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Jeff Flake is Positive . Sen. Jeff Flake  an Arizona Republican  announced Tuesday  he  would not run for re-election in 2018  condemning in a speech aimed at President Donald Trump the "flagrant disregard of truth and decency"  Flake  says is undermining American democracy.
After bucking Trump in a state the president won   Flake  is bottoming out in polls. Republicans may be left with a hard-core conservative challenger that might win the primary but lose in the general election.
 Flake  was facing a challenge from former state Sen. Kelli Ward  who failed in  her  effort to take out Sen. John McCain last year but has gained some traction this year. Last week  former Trump strategist Steve Bannon attended a fundraiser for  her .
But mainstream Republicans in Arizona believe Ward cannot beat Rep. Krysten Sinema  who is running in  her  primary as the only well-known Democratic candidate. They've been searching for another candidate to take on Flake  and his decision to step aside opens the door wide for those efforts.
"I've known  Jeff  for a long time and I admire  him  for  his  service that  he  has given to our state " she said Friday. "But I believe it is an opportunity for me to support a different candidate  someone that I've known for a long while  and somebody that I believe will serve Arizona the best."
