This was confirmed by FIFA President Gianni Infantino during the organisation's Congress in Canada. The statement provoked a reaction from Donald Trump, who agreed with the decision of the international football community.<\/p>\n<h2>Iran to play in 2026 World Cup in the USA<\/h2>\n<p>President of FIFA <strong>Gianni Infantino<\/strong> announced that Iran will participate in the 2026 World Cup to be held in the United States. He made the announcement during the organisation's Congress in Canada, stressing that the Iranian team will not only take part in the tournament but will also play matches in the United States. According to the information <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2026\/04\/30\/world\/live-news\/iran-war-news?post-id=cmoludwuv0000356w70zjoqhh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CNN<\/a>, Infantino stressed the importance of uniting people through football, regardless of political or diplomatic circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>This decision was a landmark for the international football community, as the participation of the Iranian team in the tournament in the United States is of particular importance amidst the difficult relations between the countries. FIFA has once again emphasised its apolitical nature, putting sporting principles and the idea of unity first.<\/p>\n<h2>Donald Trump's reaction to FIFA's decision<\/h2>\n<p>After the decision was announced <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/world\/us-anti-drone-500m-worldcup-2026-olympics-2028\/\">FIFA<\/a> The US President also expressed his position <strong>Donald Trump<\/strong>. He noted that he had no objection to Iran's participation in the World Cup if it had already been officially approved by the leadership of the international football organisation. This reaction shows the readiness of the US side to host the Iranian national team on its territory during the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>Trump's words were an important signal for the organisers and participants of the upcoming championship, as the final decision on the participation of the Iranian team removed potential political controversy around the sporting event.<\/p>\n<h2>The significance of Iran's participation in the tournament<\/h2>\n<p>Iran's performance at the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the United States can serve as an example of how sport can unite people even in difficult international conditions. FIFA stressed that the main goal of the tournament is to promote football and establish a dialogue between nations through the common values of the game.<\/p>\n<p>The Iranian team's participation in matches at American stadiums could also help ease tensions between the two countries and promote more open interaction at the level of cultures and societies. The 2026 World Cup is already attracting attention as one of the most significant sporting and diplomatic forums in the coming years.<\/p>\n<h2>Why it matters<\/h2>\n<p>Official participation <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/economics\/iran-na-mezhi-ekonomichnoho-kolapsu-shcho-vidbuvaietsia\/\">Iran<\/a> in the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the United States demonstrates that sport can transcend political barriers and promote dialogue between countries. FIFA's decision underscores the organisation's mission to bring people together through football, regardless of political differences.<\/p>\n<p>For the global community and football fans, it is also a signal that major sporting events remain a platform for understanding and cooperation. The participation of the Iranian national team in the tournament in the United States could be an important step towards building trust and mutual respect between nations.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0406\u0440\u0430\u043d\u0441\u044c\u043a\u0430 \u0444\u0443\u0442\u0431\u043e\u043b\u044c\u043d\u0430 \u0437\u0431\u0456\u0440\u043d\u0430 \u043e\u0444\u0456\u0446\u0456\u0439\u043d\u043e \u0432\u0438\u0441\u0442\u0443\u043f\u0438\u0442\u044c \u043d\u0430 \u0447\u0435\u043c\u043f\u0456\u043e\u043d\u0430\u0442\u0456 \u0441\u0432\u0456\u0442\u0443-2026, \u044f\u043a\u0438\u0439 \u043f\u0440\u043e\u0439\u0434\u0435 \u0443 \u0421\u0428\u0410. \u0426\u0435 \u043f\u0456\u0434\u0442\u0432\u0435\u0440\u0434\u0438\u0432 \u043f\u0440\u0435\u0437\u0438\u0434\u0435\u043d\u0442 FIFA \u0414\u0436\u0430\u043d\u043d\u0456 \u0406\u043d\u0444\u0430\u043d\u0442\u0456\u043d\u043e \u043f\u0456\u0434 \u0447\u0430\u0441 \u041a\u043e\u043d\u0433\u0440\u0435\u0441\u0443 \u043e\u0440\u0433\u0430\u043d\u0456\u0437\u0430\u0446\u0456\u0457 \u0443 \u041a\u0430\u043d\u0430\u0434\u0456. \u0417\u0430\u044f\u0432\u0430 \u0432\u0438\u043a\u043b\u0438\u043a\u0430\u043b\u0430 \u0440\u0435\u0430\u043a\u0446\u0456\u044e \u0414\u043e\u043d\u0430\u043b\u044c\u0434\u0430 \u0422\u0440\u0430\u043c\u043f\u0430, \u044f\u043a\u0438\u0439 \u043f\u043e\u0433\u043e\u0434\u0438\u0432\u0441\u044f \u0437 \u0440\u0456\u0448\u0435\u043d\u043d\u044f\u043c \u043c\u0456\u0436\u043d\u0430\u0440\u043e\u0434\u043d\u043e\u0457 \u0444\u0443\u0442\u0431\u043e\u043b\u044c\u043d\u043e\u0457 \u0441\u043f\u0456\u043b\u044c\u043d\u043e\u0442\u0438. \u0406\u0440\u0430\u043d \u0437\u0456\u0433\u0440\u0430\u0454 \u043d\u0430 \u0447\u0435\u043c\u043f\u0456\u043e\u043d\u0430\u0442\u0456 \u0441\u0432\u0456\u0442\u0443-2026 \u0443 \u0421\u0428\u0410 \u041f\u0440\u0435\u0437\u0438\u0434\u0435\u043d\u0442 FIFA \u0414\u0436\u0430\u043d\u043d\u0456 \u0406\u043d\u0444\u0430\u043d\u0442\u0456\u043d\u043e \u043e\u0433\u043e\u043b\u043e\u0441\u0438\u0432, \u0449\u043e \u0406\u0440\u0430\u043d \u0431\u0440\u0430\u0442\u0438\u043c\u0435 \u0443\u0447\u0430\u0441\u0442\u044c \u0443 \u0447\u0435\u043c\u043f\u0456\u043e\u043d\u0430\u0442\u0456 \u0441\u0432\u0456\u0442\u0443-2026, [\u2026]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":207433346,"featured_media":17902,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rank_math_description":"FIFA \u043f\u0456\u0434\u0442\u0432\u0435\u0440\u0434\u0438\u043b\u0430 \u0443\u0447\u0430\u0441\u0442\u044c \u0406\u0440\u0430\u043d\u0443 \u043d\u0430 \u0427\u0421-2026 \u0443 \u0421\u0428\u0410. \u0414\u043e\u043d\u0430\u043b\u044c\u0434 \u0422\u0440\u0430\u043c\u043f \u043f\u043e\u0433\u043e\u0434\u0438\u0432\u0441\u044f \u0437 \u0440\u0456\u0448\u0435\u043d\u043d\u044f\u043c, \u043f\u043e\u043f\u0440\u0438 \u0441\u043a\u043b\u0430\u0434\u043d\u0456 \u0432\u0456\u0434\u043d\u043e\u0441\u0438\u043d\u0438 \u043c\u0456\u0436 \u043a\u0440\u0430\u0457\u043d\u0430\u043c\u0438.","rank_math_title":"\u0406\u0440\u0430\u043d \u0437\u0456\u0433\u0440\u0430\u0454 \u043d\u0430 \u0427\u0421-2026 \u0443 \u0421\u0428\u0410 \u2014 \u0440\u0456\u0448\u0435\u043d\u043d\u044f FIFA","rank_math_focus_keyword":"\u0427\u0421-2026","td_subtitle":"","subtitle":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[805619],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-17903","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-world"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17903","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/207433346"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17903"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17903\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17906,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17903\/revisions\/17906"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/17902"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17903"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17903"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17903"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
