World Cup visa crisis linked to Infantino
With the launch of the 2026 World Cup, political and diplomatic challenges related to visas and immigration have emerged. Many participants and fans faced difficulties in obtaining the necessary visas to enter the United States due to new American policies that imposed restrictions on citizens of several countries, policies that were intensified during the Trump administration. These policies led to the denial of entry for some officials, dignitaries, and journalists. Meanwhile, the Iranian team relocated its training camp to Mexico instead of the United States, amid hints that U.S. policies were behind these obstacles. FIFA repeatedly emphasized that issuing visas is the responsibility of governments, but its prior relationships with the Trump administration sparked criticism over the credibility of its promises to welcome all fans and teams to participate in the tournament.
