In the light of the next main sporting events in the United States, Human Rights Organization warns Amnesty International. Lisa Salza, the topics, the state officer, and the United States of America, Amnesty International, Switzerland, said the situation in the country under President Donald Trump is “deteriorating significantly.”
“With its movement against minorities, with its discriminatory practices and laws, the government of President Trump clearly shows authoritarian tendencies with criminalization of dissidents,” says Saliza. This is especially concerned with sports, for example in the World Cup in the Summer or Olympic Games 2028 in Los Angeles.
Endangery and political control groups
Saliza believes that transmeths are at risk under new laws: “The United States government issued a decree immediately after taking office wants to prevent converting persons from participating in women’s sports.” Politically active fans, especially those who have a decisive position towards the US government, or to adhere to Palestine, can also be examined or monitored. Media specialists are subjected to repression and restrictions on freedom of the press.
FIFA and IOC in service – but hesitant
According to Salsa, sports associations such as FIFA and IOC have a central responsibility: “You should make sure that human rights agreements, which were also taken in consultation with civil society as part of the award.”

Speaker Christian Chloe said that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) holds its responsibility seriously as part of its responsibility. They are working closely with the Organizing Committee, the American Olympic Committee, USPC and the US government to clarify all questions about games and guarantee hospitality. However, outside its field of responsibility, the International Olympic Committee “has no mandate and no way to change the laws or political system of sovereign countries.”
Under the sixth goal of the strategic goals of global football, “FIFA is committed to compliance with all internationally recognized human rights and is committed to protecting these rights.” Saliza sees the current situation in a critical way. So far, FIFA president has not criticized President Trump. “On the contrary, Gianni Infantino literally throws dust against Donald Trump, and does not tire of his thanks for his support for the preparations for the championship.”
