"I read the news about Iran this morning. We had our meeting today and it is too early to comment in detail, but we will follow events regarding all issues around the world. The final match draw was held in Washington with the participation of all teams. Our main focus now is to organise a safe and secure World Cup for all teams. As always, we will continue to liaise with all three host countries.".
