Donald Trump is traveling to Paris for his first international trip as president-elect. He will attend the reopening celebration of Notre Dame Cathedral, which was damaged by fire in 2019. French President Emmanuel Macron will meet with Trump during the event. Macron's office downplayed the significance of Trump's invitation, stating that other former politicians were also invited. President Joe Biden was invited but will not attend due to a scheduling conflict, with First Lady Jill Biden representing the U.S. instead. Trump's visit comes as Macron seeks to strengthen ties with the president-elect and encourage continued U.S. support for Ukraine. Relations between Trump and Macron have been mixed, but Macron congratulated Trump after his recent election victory.
