It's gotta be reasonable and fair, Argentina should ideally host 7 stadiums, with Uruguay hosting the remaining 5. But of course, this seems unlikely. As long as it doesn't end up as Spain/Portugal, then it should have a decent chance in winning.

I personally think that Uruguay could get to have the maximum 3 seats, and the other 8 or 9 in Argentina, by the population and size, as Uruguay has the same number of inhabitants that the province of Córdoba (about 3 million of people ) ...

I think it'll be a battle between, either the USA vs Australia vs China vs This.

Depending on how 22 & 26 roll out. Really promising.

Until now the president of FIFA said they are very pleased that the in 2030 World Cup takes place in Uruguay and Argentina...

Here some of the latest news that have come:

The Grondona and AUF president spoke of the nomination for the 2030 World Cup, "FIFA supports us."

You have to see how it gets Messi and 2030?
The issue is that the AFA and the Uruguayan Football Association (AUF) raised a request to FIFA to host the 2030 World Cup, 100 years after the first World Cup staged in Uruguay. Yesterday, Sebastian Bauza, president of the AUF, said: "The idea is to do with Argentina because for Uruguay, a small country, it would be difficult to do alone. Why would a series in Uruguay and the rest in Argentina. " addition, Bauzá anticipated that the idea is to remake the Centenary and leave a recorded video with Alcides Ghiggia, star of Maracanazo. Today we have the support of FIFA, hopefully they will keep.

For its part, Julio Grondona defined as a great achievement for Argentina this candidacy: "This is good news for the future, and that in 2030 the leaders are going to have the opportunity to host the World Cup in the country

Not possible. Australia winning 2022 would make China inelgible until 2034.

Would it be possible for Fifa to just give Uruguay and Argentina to host now so we don't have to waste people's time. Like whats the point of other countries bidding if you know where it's going to go. Give them it now and focus on 2026 and 2034.

It's not a terrible idea. I think they should take it a step further and just award the 2026 World Cup to the side that doesn't wind up hosting in 2022, whether it be the U.S. or Australia, seeing as the loser is seen as the favorite to get the gig the next time around anyway. But then, why would FIFA pass up an opportunity to be wined and dined and bribed when they could do the logical and most intelligent thing.

There is zero news in this as its been known for ages.The formal recognition of joint bids in June has now made it a legal possibility.
Its just that its way to early to even be talking 20 years ahead

For me Argentina should host 6 cities and Uruguay 2:

Rosario
Cordoba
Mendoza
Buenos Aires (2 stadiums)
Mar del Plata

Montevideo (2 stadiums)
Punta del Este

You need around 12-13 stadiums and only one city can have two.

So, you need more cities/towns.
