The victory marks Trump’s successful return to the presidency after a four-year hiatus following his first term, in which he served from 2017 to 2021. With the transition now in full swing, the focus has shifted to the inaugural celebrations, with major logistical plans being finalised and various security and ceremonial measures being put in place to ensure a smooth event.

The inauguration of the 47th president will be a high-profile event, drawing attention from around the world. Several international leaders are expected to attend, with many sending representatives to witness the swearing-in ceremony and the various inaugural events. Invitations have already been extended to leaders from key global powers, including the United Kingdom, Germany, France, and Canada, among others.
