# Soccer: Fifty members of the European Parliament have urged FIFA’s ethics committee to investigate their president Gianni Infantino for awarding a ‘peace prize’ to US President Donald Trump. The MEPs signed a letter, supporting a complaint by British-based sports human rights lobbying group FairSquare in December. The letter said FIFA’s code of ethics required Infantino to remain politically neutral. FairSquare said the letter was the most significant intervention by European policymakers into misgovernance and rule breaking at the top of the world game since the European Parliament called on Infantino’s predecessor Sepp Blatter to resign in 2015.
