CONMEBOL joining UEFA Nations League in 2024

Argentina, Brazil set to join expanded UEFA Nations League from 2024
Snippet:
The UEFA Nations League is set to expand to include all 10 South American countries from the 2024 edition, according to UEFA vice-president Zbigniew Boniek.
In a move which will be seen as in clear opposition to FIFA's planned biennial World Cup, UEFA and CONMEBOL, the South American confederation, signed a renewed and extended Memorandum of Understanding on Wednesday to commit to the "opening of a shared UEFA/CONMEBOL office in London and the potential organisation of a variety of football events."
It has already been confirmed that the first "Finalissima" between the winners of the UEFA European Championship and the Copa America will be held at a stadium in London on June 1, 2022, when Italy take on Argentina.
"This is the last UEFA Nations League in this format," Boniek, formerly head of the Polish FA, said in an interview with Meczyki. "We had a meeting with CONMEBOL, the confederation of South American countries. From 2024, teams from this continent will join the competition.

I'd love to see these Euro nations play in La Paz and Quito. Unfortunately this is just SA teams going to Europe to play glorified friendlies. Yawn

I'm confused why they are against the biennial World Cup if they are planning a mini World Cup anyway.
