It is not yet clear if Trump will attend the ceremony on August 31, which makes the invitation unusual, broadcaster NOS said. Usually invitations are only extended when there are indications that they will be accepted.
Trump’s daughter Ivanka will be in the Netherlands in early June for the Global Entrepreneurship Summit in The Hague.
