Ambassador Pasandideh visited the northwestern Mexican border city of Tijuana, where Iranians have relocated their training camp for the 2026 World Cup. They were originally planned to be based in Tucson in the US state of Arizona. Iran's football team still lacks US visas and is not competing in the World Cup on "equal terms" because of its difficulty in training ahead of the tournament, Pasandideh said on May 28, 2026.
