Summary

Key Points

- The suspension follows numerous warnings, including interference by the National Sports Council (NSC) and restrictions on ANFA officials.

- FIFA will lift suspension only after revocation of NSC’s suspension and allowing ANFA to complete its electoral process without interference.
