Iran Ambassador Attends World Cup Team Arrival Press Conference in Tijuana

Members of the Mexican National Guard secure the area of the Chaparral US-Mexico Port of Entry in Tijuana, Mexico, as Iran's ambassador to Mexico, Abolfazl Pasandideh, is given a tour by members of the Chamber of Commerce in Tijuana (CANACO) after a press conference ahead of the arrival of the national football team for the FIFA 2026 World Cup football tournament, in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico, on June 6, 2026.
