Ukraine has joined Spain and Portugal’s bid to host the 2030 World Cup
, the Spanish Football Federation and the Portuguese Football Federation said on Wednesday. “Our bid is not an Iberian bid anymore, it’s a European bid,” RFEF president Luis Rubiales said during a press conference at European football governing body UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland. “I’m convinced that now our bid is much better than before.
“[Our reasons are] firstly because of the environmental and social conditions regarding the event and this is not the model that we wish to promote for major events in Paris,” Pierre Rabadan, Paris’ deputy mayor of sport, said on Tuesday. However, the city made it clear that it is not a boycott of the event itself, nor of the Qatari regime. “It doesn’t mean that we are calling for a boycott of the event,” added Rabadan.
