Donald Trump to meet Prince William & Jill Biden ahead of Notre Dame reopening on first trip since election win
Donald Trump has reached Paris and will meet with Jill Biden and Prince William at Notre Dame’s reopening ceremony.
The future US leader will commemorate the return of the 800-year-old emblem of France alongside French President Emmanuel Macron, the first lady, and the heir apparent.
Following a 2019 fire that destroyed most of the site’s history and tore through the roof, the famous cathedral has been repaired.
Just before 7 a.m., Trump, on his first international trip since winning the election, landed on a private plane at Orly airport in the south of Paris, a source told AFP.
Prior to the ceremony, the president-elect is scheduled to meet with Macron and maybe with Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky.
Prior to the event, he will also meet with Prince William and Jill Biden, the departing first lady.
