US President Donald Trump will not fly to Italy for the opening of the Winter Olympics in Milan next month, the White House announced.
Instead, he is sending Vice President JD Vance, who will lead the American delegation with his wife, Usha Vance.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio will also attend the opening ceremony on February 6. So will four former Olympic gold medalists: Jocelyne Lamoureux-Davidson and Monique Lamoureux-Morando (ice hockey), Apolo Ohno (short track) and Evan Lysacek (figure skating).
