Скачать или смотреть President Trump calls Seattle Mayor-elect 'another beauty,' warns about World Cup safety in the city

FIFA President Gianni Infantino and U.S. President Donald Trump made a significant announcement in the Oval Office on Monday, unveiling an expedited visa process for World Cup ticket holders seeking entry into the United States.

Seattle is among the cities slated to host the 2026 World Cup, with six games planned.

During the announcement, Trump spoke about Seattle's new Democratic socialist mayor-elect, Katie Wilson, and whether her agenda and the city's existing crime issues could impact its ability to host the games.

Despite Infantino's reassurances, President Trump expressed concerns about potential issues in "liberal" cities, stating that if there is a "problem," he might consider relocating World Cup events from Seattle.

"If we think there's a problem in Seattle, where we have a very, very liberal-slash-communist mayor, certainly beyond just liberal.... I watched her over the weekend... wow, that's another beauty we got there. But if we think there's gonna be another problem, we're gonna move this event to another place where it's going to be appreciated and safe," Trump said.
