Trump's inauguration ceremony will be held at the Capitol.

The 47th President of the United States, Donald Trump, made a statement regarding the inauguration ceremony, which will take place on January 20, the date he will officially take office.

"IT'S MY DUTY TO PROTECT PEOPLE EVEN BEFORE TAKING OFFICE"

Trump, who stated, "It is my duty to protect the people of our country by thinking about the inauguration ceremony even before taking office," drew attention to weather forecast reports indicating that the temperature in Washington DC will drop significantly due to the wind on the day of the inauguration. Trump said, "There is an Arctic cold air outbreak sweeping the country. I do not want anyone to be injured or harmed in any way. There are dangerous conditions for the tens of thousands of law enforcement officers, first responders, police dogs, and even horses who will be outside for hours on January 20, as well as for the hundreds of thousands of supporters."

FIRST SINCE 1985: TO BE HELD IN THE CAPITOL BUILDING

Noting that due to the cold weather conditions, the prayers and opening speeches at the ceremony will be held in the Rotunda of the U.S. Capitol building, Trump stated that this would be a wonderful experience for everyone, especially for the large television audience. The last time in the U.S. that an inauguration ceremony was held in the Rotunda of the Capitol building due to extreme cold weather conditions was in 1985 for former President Ronald Reagan.

"THOSE CONSIDERING ATTENDING THE CEREMONY SHOULD DRESS WELL"

On the other hand, Trump noted that there would be no changes to the events outside of the inauguration ceremony scheduled for the daytime on January 20, stating, "In any case, those considering attending the inauguration should dress well."
