FIFA President Faces Ethics Complaint for Trump Peace Prize
Update: 2025-12-11
Description
FIFA President Gianni Infantino faces an ethics complaint for allegedly violating political neutrality rules by awarding the first FIFA Peace Prize to former President Donald Trump. The complaint, submitted by a human rights group in London, argues that Infantinos decision and past public support for Trumps political goals contradict FIFAs Code of Ethics. The controversy escalates as the group questions the creation of the new prize, claiming it was not approved by FIFAs FIFA Council. If investigated, Infantino could face penalties, including a possible ban from soccer-related activities. Critics argue that the award damages FIFAs claim of global impartiality and threatens its trustworthiness.
