The International Olympic Committee has cleared FIFA president Gianni Infantino of breaching political neutrality rules following his attendance at U.S. President Donald Trump's inaugural Board of Peace meeting. Infantino announced a partnership aimed at developing football infrastructure in Gaza during the event. The decision comes amid criticisms from former FIFA president Sepp Blatter over the organization's ties to Trump and the 2026 World Cup format.
