IOC president Kirsty Coventry said the Olympic body will "look into" Gianni Infantino's conduct after he participated in President Trump's Board of Peace launch. Infantino signed a partnership on behalf of FIFA at the Washington event that could see $75 million of soccer funds invested in Gaza, and FIFA pledged $50 million for a Gaza stadium. Infantino has closely aligned FIFA with the U.S., attending Trump's inauguration and visiting the White House and Mar-a-Lago ahead of the 2026 World Cup. IOC members are bound to political neutrality under the Olympic Charter and include senior figures from Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Indonesia.
