Ivanka Trump is set to attend the closing ceremony of the Winter Olympics in South Korea on Sunday in the latest high-profile visit to Games which have been dominated by the North Korea crisis.
The trip by U. S. President Donald Trump’s eldest daughter — who is also one of his advisers — comes in the wake of a visit to the Pyeongchang Games by North Korea’s ceremonial head of state Kim Yong Nam and Kim Yo Jong, sister of leader Kim Jong Un.
“The upcoming visit by adviser Ivanka is intended to celebrate the successful hosting of the Pyeongchang Olympics and highlight the mutual understanding of the South Korea-U. S. alliance,” Noh Kyu-duk, spokesman for the foreign ministry in Seoul, said Tuesday, according to the Yonhap news agency.
Trump is expected to arrive in South Korea on Friday, the agency added.
