Mexico's president sees 'no issue' with her country hosting Iran's World Cup team during tournament

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum says she has “no issue” with her country hosting Iran’s World Cup team after its training base was moved from the United States to Mexico for the summer soccer competition. The Iranian team will still play its matches in the U.S. but its base has been moved to Tijuana, Mexico, just south of San Diego, California. FIFA confirmed the move on Monday. The development comes against the backdrop of the war in Iran. Sheinbaum told a news conference that a FIFA representative had told her the U.S. was reluctant to have the Iranian soccer team spend time outside the games on U.S. territory.
