The Iranian national soccer team has received their visas to enter the USA. A White House representative confirmed this to the Reuters news agency. Accordingly, the documents were issued just ten days before the team’s first World Cup game in Los Angeles.

An Iranian ambassador to Mexico had previously said that the team was still waiting for approvals. The visas were then issued overnight, Reuters reported. The team’s entry was in jeopardy for months because of the war between the USA and Iran.

It was only on Thursday evening that all members of the team received their visas to enter Mexico. The Iranian association had previously moved its World Cup headquarters from Arizona to Tijuana, Mexico, at short notice. The team is expected there at the weekend. The team travels from the border city to its group games in Los Angeles and Seattle.

Historic building bans Trump’s name “immediately”

The Kennedy Center in Washington bans US President Donald Trump’s name from official documents. Employees of the world-famous cultural institution were instructed to “immediately” remove Trump’s name from email signatures, letterheads and answering machines, according to a memo sent on Thursday (local time) that was available to several US newspapers. The website, brochures and indoor and outdoor signs would also have to be changed by June 12th.

The move follows a court decision last week. A judge ordered Trump’s name removed from the center’s facade. In addition, at least for the time being, the center may not be closed for renovation work in the summer for two years as Trump planned. Trump reacted extremely angrily to the verdict.
