Human rights organization Amnesty International has raised concerns about the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup, warning that the tournament could potentially serve as a platform for authoritarian repression. The organization emphasizes the need for FIFA to implement stronger human rights protections and oversight measures to prevent the World Cup from being exploited by governments to suppress dissent and civil liberties. This warning comes as preparations intensify for the tournament, which will be jointly hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico across multiple cities and venues.
