Nine months from kick-off of the World Cup in the United States, Mexico and Canada, Donald Trump threw a pavement in the fed on Thursday, on the occasion of an exchange with some handpicked journalists in the Oval White House office.
The President of the United States said he was ready to move certain World Cup matches if he believes that the security of the various players was not guaranteed. “This is an interesting question, he said. But we will make sure that they (host cities) are secure. They are managed by scranges on the left who do not know what they are doing. »»
“Security will be ensured for the World Cup. If I judge that it is not we will move matches in other cities ”, He continued when eleven cities in the United States must host World Cup matches in addition to the two cities in Canada-Toronto and Vancouver-and three in Mexico-Mexico City, Guadalajara and Monterrey.
Many host cities concerned
“If we think that a city is going to be, even just a little, dangerous for the World Cup or the Olympic Games but in particular for the World Cup because the competition is deployed in so many cities, we will not let the matches take place, we will move them a little”, He added before pointing to the Criminal Statistics of Chicago, which does not count among host cities.
Several cities seem particularly concerned with this threat from Donald Trump: San Francisco, Philadelphia, Seattle as well as Los Angeles, where the Trump administration did not hesitate to deploy the National Guard during the summer despite the objections of local elected officials. Also led by Democrats, New York and Boston seem less threatened.
