FIFA president Gianni Infantino said he has the intention to answer a list of questions from European football ruling body UEFA regarding the abandoned plan to bring private investors into FIFA events as well as other controversial incidents.
"We are working on it and will, of course, answer all the questions posed, to the extent that the process allows and to the best of our ability," Infantino told media representatives on the sidelines of the Under-15 World Cup in Baku.
UEFA has recently demanded a response to the list of 42 questions by November 2.
Infantino has come under fire on several fronts: such as the eventually abandoned plan to bring private investors into their events led by the World Cup, the awarding of a FIFA peace price to US President Donald Trump and the affair around US player Folarin Balogun who was allowed to play a World Cup game despite being sent off in the previous match after a phone call from Trump to Infantino.
UEFA wants Infantino to resign but the FIFA boss has said he will seek re-election in March.
"I was elected by 211 member associations from around the world," he said, adding that in a democratic organization, one must accept different views.
"If we are serious about democracy, we must also respect the views of the vast, vast majority."
Asked whether he could reconcile with UEFA, Infantino said: "I’ve always said: As far as I’m concerned, I’m always ready to discuss matters with anyone, to exchange ideas with anyone, and to explore what can be done to improve things for everyone, with open arms, an open mind, and an open heart."
