## Resource

FIFA President Gianni Infantino is praising former President Trump for helping turn the World Cup into a cultural phenomenon, crediting his administration for the event’s success and even calling it “incredible.” Trump, though not attending matches, was slated to present the trophy to the champions — a move White House officials hailed as a fitting tribute to America’s hosting prowess. This isn’t the first time Trump’s been involved: he attended the FIFA Club World Cup trophy ceremony last summer and even called Infantino to review a controversial red card decision affecting Team USA. Trump also received the first FIFA Peace Prize in Washington, D.C., during the World Cup draw, cementing his ongoing ties to the organization. As FIFA continues to acknowledge past collaborations, it’s clear the relationship with Trump extends beyond this tournament — highlighting how global sporting events can become powerful platforms for politics and culture.
