FPÖ attends Trump’s inauguration – but not Kickl
On Monday, US President-elect Donald Trump will be sworn in - the FPÖ is also sending a representative, but party leader Herbert Kickl is foregoing a trip to the United States. Instead, FPÖ Member of the National Council Susanne Fürst will attend the inauguration at the Capitol.

She will meet another right-wing politician who already has good contacts with Trump. Italy's right-wing Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni will also be present at the inauguration. She made a flying visit to the USA earlier this year and was received by Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida.
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has also been invited. However, it was unclear whether Orban would attend. China's head of state Xi Jinping also received an invitation, but Beijing is sending Vice President Han Zheng.
