During a meeting in Ankara, Turkey on July 8, the American President claimed that Spain were a ‘terrible partner in NATO’ and he wanted to cut off all trade relations with his European ally.

They don’t participate, they don’t pay. I don’t want anything to do with Spain. “Cut off all trade with Spain, please, including visits… let’s see how hostile they remain when they call up, and they say ‘please, please, we want to trade with you, sir.’” What other controversies has Donald Trump been part of during World Cup 2026? Trump confirmed he called Infantino after Team USA’s Round of 32 match against Bosnia and Herzegovina, and asked the Fifa president to review Folarin Balogun’s foul in the 64th minute.

The stunning ejection meant Balogun was due to miss Team USA’s crunch-time match against Belgium. Trump slammed the referee Raphael Claus, of Brazil, and warned to check his “suspect” past. And the decision was soon reversed which Trump thought was “beautiful,” and commended Infantino as a “smart, tough man” whose “stock has gone through the roof.” Comment now
