Gianni Infantino urges calm over World Cup visa controversy
FIFA president Gianni Infantino said it is sometimes better to take a relaxed approach to the United States' visa decisions affecting World Cup participants. He emphasized that FIFA cannot dictate immigration policy to the host nation.
Infantino reminded that visa regulations fall under U. S.
jurisdiction, not FIFA’s. Nevertheless, he called for greater cooperation to ensure the tournament runs smoothly.
The remarks aim to ease concerns among national teams facing uncertain entry approvals.
