Opened Obama's Presidential Center in Chicago: There were many famous guests, but the most famous refused to come

Former U.S. President Barack Obama opened his presidential center in Chicago with an event attended by numerous former and current politicians, world leaders, celebrities, and public figures. Guests included former Presidents Joe Biden, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton, along with former First Ladies and Vice President Kamala Harris. Musicians such as Bruce Springsteen, Steve Winwood, Christina Aguilera, and Bono performed at the event. Public officials like California Governor Gavin Newsom, television host Oprah Winfrey, and actor Tom Hanks were also present. Former foreign leaders including

Bivši američki predsednik Barak Obama otvorio je danas svoj predsednički centar u Čikagu događajem koji je okupio brojne bivše i sadašnje političare, svetske lidere, poznate ličnosti i muzičke zvezde, a događaju su prisutvovali i bivši predsednici SAD Džo Bajden, Džordž V. Buš i Bil Klinton, zajedno sa bivšim prvim damama, kao i bivša potpredsednica Kamala Haris .

Na svečanosti su između ostalih nastupili Brus Springstin, Stivi Vonder, Kristina Agilera i Bono .

Prisustvovali su i brojni javni i kulturni radnici, uključujući guvernera Kalifornije Gevina Njusoma, televizijsku voditeljku Opru Vinfri i glumca Toma Henksa , prenosi Associated Press.

Među gostima su bili i bivši strani lideri, uključujući bivšu nemačku kancelarku Angelu Merkel i bivšeg kanadskog premijera Džastina Trudoa .

Obamin predsednički centar u parku Džekson u južnom Čikagu biće otvoren za javnost od sutra, a kompleks uključuje muzej, javne prostore, biblioteku i sportske sadržaje.

Organizatori navode da bi centar mogao da privuče više od milion posetilaca godišnje.

Predsednik SAD Donald Tramp nije prisustvovao događaju, a ranije je projekat ocenio kao "potpunu katastrofu" .

Izvršna direktorka Obamine fondacije Valeri Džaret rekla je da Tramp nije pozvan na današnju ceremoniju otvaranja Obaminog centra i da ta odluka "odražava fokus događaja na dobrodošlicu pristalicama Obame i rad koji je oživeo centar".

Džaret je dodala da je Tramp i "dalje dobrodošao" da poseti centar u budućnosti .

"Rekli smo da ako predsednik Tramp želi da dođe i obiđe kampus, voleli bismo da mu pokažemo sve veličanstvene stvari koje nudimo, kako ljudima koji ovde žive, tako i ljudima koji nas posećuju iz celog sveta", istakla je ona.

Obamin centar se otvara za javnost više od decenije nakon što je bivši predsednik izabrao svoj rodni grad Čikago za projekat.

Bias read (Center): The article provides a balanced account of the event, mentioning both the attendees and the absence of Donald Trump, who was critical of the project. The framing remains neutral, focusing on the event itself rather than taking a stance on political figures involved.
