The feminist group from the United States "Code Pink" (Women for Peace) joined the list of those who have asked FIFA not to hold the World Cup in the United States due to the actions taken by ICE, which have resulted in the deaths of several people. people.

This group, founded in 2002 and whose objective is to end wars and militarism in the United States, took a critical stance against the actions of ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), stating that: “ICE puts lives at risk.”

CodePink was the organization that publicly protested against FIFA for proceeding with its plans to host the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Mexico, and Canada, especially given the discontent regarding the governing body of football's advocacy for the United States and its president, Donald Trump.

Several groups, politicians, and prominent figures in sports have expressed their opposition to FIFA's efforts to hold the World Cup despite the brutal actions of immigration agents, better known as ICE, in the United States, which will host the tournament in June.

For this reason, CodePink sent this letter, which contains the The intention is to make FIFA understand that the human rights of thousands of people have been violated.

“In June 2026, FIFA plans to host matches in the United States, a country where travel from other nations is no longer safe. Through increased activity by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the US government is terrorizing the very communities that popularized soccer in the United States. Masked ICE agents conduct raids that tear families apart and turn everyday life into a state of fear,” reads the official website.

This petition currently has 3,540 signatures and counting from all those who have expressed their disagreement with holding such a large-scale event in a country where law enforcement has not been adequate. For this reason, a message was also sent to the FIFA President: “To Gianni Infantino, FIFA President. The FIFA World Cup depends on safe travel, equal treatment, and respect for human dignity. In 2026, FIFA plans to host matches in the United States, a country where travelers face an increased risk of detention, discrimination, lack of due process, and violence at the border and within the country. These conditions undermine the basic requirements for a global sporting event,” the letter reads. This organization even emphasized that Trump was awarded the FIFA Peace Prize at the World Cup draw held in December 2025, and that the president “bombed Nigeria and Venezuela, FIFA member countries. He also threatened with attacks on Mexico, Colombia, and Iran, all qualified for the 2026 World Cup, and has threatened Denmark over Greenland.”

Proposals for a boycott against the World Cup continue to grow. Jurgen Hardt, of the Christian Democratic Union, suggests that Germany could withdraw from the World Cup in light of Donald Trump's threats against Greenland. Teun Van De Heuken, a television producer in the Netherlands, also believes it is morally questionable for the 'Oranje' to participate in the World Cup.
