The event was officially announced by U.S. President Donald Trump and FIFA President Gianni Infantino during a meeting at the White House.
The draw will be a key milestone on the path to the start of the World Cup, bringing together delegations of teams, representatives of host cities, diplomats, fans, and global media in the American capital. The cultural center and at the same time a living memorial to John Kennedy will be the place where 42 out of 48 participants in the tournament will receive their groups, while another six teams will be determined after the March playoffs.
We remind you that in the European qualifying round, which will take place in the fall, the Ukrainian national team is in a group with France, Iceland, and Azerbaijan. 12 group winners from the qualifying cycle will receive direct tickets to the final part of the World Cup 2026.
