[World Wide Web Reporter Li Sa] According to US media reports such as the Associated Press and Colombia Broadcasting Corporation (CBS), US President Trump threatened on the 14th that if he believed that there were "unsafe" factors in Boston, the 2026 World Cup originally scheduled to be held here will be moved elsewhere. According to reports, in June and July next year, seven World Cup games will be scheduled to be held in Boston. "If someone is not doing a good job, if I don't think it's safe there, I'll call FIFA President Infantino, who is very good, I'll say,'Let's move somewhere else,' and he'll do it." In an interview with US media at the White House, Trump called for the game to be moved to cities that were willing to cooperate, citing security concerns. He also said he would do the same for the 2028 Olympics if he believed Los Angeles was unsafe. According to the Associated Press, the World Cup host city was not Trump’s account, the venue was decided by FIFA.In addition, the Boston Mayor’s office did not respond directly to Trump’s threat, but issued a statement saying that Boston was honored to be the host of the World Cup and welcomed fans from all over the world to this beautiful city. Trump had previously suggested that parts of Boston had been “occupied” by riots. According to U.S. media reports on Sept. 7, a U.S. Department of Homeland Security spokesman said federal immigration law enforcement officers had carried out raids in Boston, Massachusetts and surrounding communities. On the same day, Massachusetts Governor Hillary, in an interview with Microsoft-National Radio, criticized the Trump administration’s immigration law enforcement initiation in the state as a “political show.” CBS said that in early October, police said that more than 100 people gathered on the streets of the southern district of Boston, blocked traffic and attacked patrol cars, and then set one of them on fire.
