Donald Trump will visit Paris on Saturday for the reopening of Notre Dame Cathedral, which has been closed since a fire in 2019. The cathedral has undergone five years of restoration and will reopen with invite-only events. Trump announced his visit in a social media post and praised French President Emmanuel Macron for the restoration. It is unclear if Trump plans to meet with Macron during his visit. France was a favorite international destination for Trump during his presidency, and he visited the country four times, including for Bastille Day, Armistice Day, and D-Day ceremonies. He also attended a Group of Seven Summit in France. Trump’s visit to Paris marks his first trip abroad since winning the recent U.S. presidential election.
