The Milan-Cortina Olympics have entered their final week. The closing ceremony will be held on Sunday, February 22 , at the Verona Arena. And Donald J. Trump could be coming to Italy to close out this great event.
The 47th President of the United States is reportedly considering a stopover in the "Bel Paese," specifically Milan, should Team USA compete for gold in the men's ice hockey final. The NHL stars, coming off a resounding 5-1 rout of Germany in their final group game, are still waiting to know their quarterfinal opponents ( Sweden or Latvia ), but they and Canada remain the favorites to win.
In the event of a final, the tycoon could indeed arrive in Milan and in Washington, as well as in Italy, they have already begun to think about how to set up security for the visit, which should in any case be short.
A quick trip: after Air Force One lands, Trump would be taken directly to the Ice Hockey Arena of Santa Giulia . Then, once the big event is over, he would be transferred to the Verona Arena , where Trump could attend the closing ceremony of the Games.
According to leaks, Trump's arrival could also be brought forward to Saturday, February 21. The definitive answer will be known on Friday evening when, 48 hours before the final, it will be officially known which nations will compete for the hockey gold medal.
