Donald Trump, president of the United States and recipient of the first Fifa Peace Prize, speaking at the 2026 World Cup draw, showed some emotion. “This is truly one of the greatest honors of my life” Joe Biden’s successor said.
“We have saved millions of lives. Congo, for example: 10 million dead, they were coming very quickly to 10 million. Even with India and Pakistan we avoided wars that were about to start” he emphasized.
“Gianni (Infantino, ed.) has done an incredible job, you have set a new record for ticket sales. It is quite a tribute to you and the game of soccer, or as we call it soccer. It is beyond the numbers we thought possible” Trump then remarked.
