Russian rumours: UK and US are plotting to remove 2018 World Cup says spokeswoman
April 3 – Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova has accused the UK and US of using the poisoning scandal to try and take the World Cup away from her country.
Speaking in a lengthy interview with a Russian TV channel, she said their “main aim” was to “take the World Cup out of Russia”.
British royals and politicians are already boycotting the tournament in the response to the poisoning of Sergei Skripal and his daughter though there is no suggestion the England team will do likewise.
