Possible.

But it is also political in nature. Most likely USA not happy that Russia got the 2018 World Cup?

I don’t think the US cared much (they never cleared much profit off the 1994 episode).

There’s a lot of hostility in Europe over the Qatar episode (2022) and virtually no one is agreeable over the new playing schedule to make that World Cup possible (ends the week of Xmas in 2022).
