In the context of discussions regarding a possible boycott of the World Cup, the president of the German Football Federation, Bernd Neuendorf, stated that there is no question of such an action for political reasons. Neuendorf emphasized that the opinion within the DFB is that the debate about a boycott is inappropriate at this time. This decision comes against the backdrop of comments from American President Donald Trump, who ordered the capture of Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro and expressed intentions to annex Greenland. Oke Gottlich, president of the St. Pauli team, suggested that the boycott of the event should be discussed, and lawyer Mark Pieth advised fans to avoid traveling to the USA. Although there are voices supporting the boycott, Germany has chosen to participate in the competition, marking a clear stance in the face of political challenges.
