Inauguration of Donald Trump
Donald Trump becomes the 47th president of the United States.
We broadcast from Washington bringing live the events of the inauguration in the US Capitol. The ceremony, traditionally held outside the US Capitol, has been moved indoors due to a forecast of freezing temperatures with a wind chill of -13C (9F). Earlier Donald Trump and his family attended a church service in the capital.
Officials from the incoming administration say they'll include declaring a 鈥渘ational emergency鈥 at the US-Mexico border and ordering the resumption of construction of the border wall.
Presenter: Nuala McGovern in Washington.
