Raw Story  

President-elect Donald Trump said he plans to attend the re-opening of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, which was devasted by a fire in April 2019 and underwent a massive renovation worth hundreds of millions of dollars. French President Emmanuel Macron set an ambitious re-opening goal of five years, and in keeping with that timeline, the cathedral is set to re-open to the public on Dec. 8, with a ceremony planned a day earlier. "It is an honor to announce that I will be traveling to Paris, France, on Saturday to attend the re-opening of the Magnificent and Historic Notre Dame Cathedral, which has been fully restored after a devastating fire five years ago," Trump wrote. "President Emmanuel Macron has done a wonderful job ensuring that Notre Dame has been restored to its full level of glory, and even more so.
