Many observers expect the 2026 FIFA World Cup to be the most political in history because it will unfold amid intensifying geopolitical rivalries, migration disputes, debates over democracy and human rights, and tensions involving participating countries such as Iran, all while being hosted by three North American countries.

In this episode of FEPS Talks, Christian Salm, FEPS Head of Democracy and Participation Programmes, talks to Cas Mudde, Dutch Political Scientist and Research Professor of International Affairs at University of Georgia/US about the politics around the 2026 FIFA World Cup.

They explore and discuss issues ranging from the impact of the Iran conflict on the 2026 FIFA World Cup, to the legitimization of controversial policies during the event, potential boycott measures, and the role of football in political campaigning.
