Gianni Infantino: FIFA President news conference on eve of World Cup
It’s not easy when you have 300,000 accredited people, majority of which from outside of the US, to process them to vet them, you don’t know. Unfortunately, our world is a very aggressive world and security goes above everything and you need to respect the decisions which are taken and when I say to chill, I don’t mean to chill and do nothing.
I mean to trust us, that we are working behind the scenes, we are trying to understand and there are things we can know, things we cannot know, things we are told, not told.
We always try to make the situation as positive as possible and to find solutions. Sometimes we manage, other times not.
I think it has already been successful to bring Iran to play in America. I don't know who would have managed to do that, and of course, everyone here believes it's the right thing to do but again we don't live on the moon; we live on planet earth and you have to deal with different situations. We try to do our best and I hope we’ll have some good news.
