President Trump announced his intention to relocate the 2026 World Cup games from American cities he considers unsafe during his remarks at the Oval Office on Thursday. The commander-in-chief criticized the leadership of Seattle and San Francisco while discussing security measures for the international tournament. Trump plans to deploy federal forces to multiple urban areas and stated that dangerous locations will lose their hosting privileges for both the World Cup and the 2028 Olympics. FIFA maintains authority over venue decisions, though Trump maintains close ties with the organization's president, Gianni Infantino.
