Kim is blacklisted under Seoul's unilateral sanctions against the North although he is not named in the UN Security Council's measures.&nbsp;</div>''<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"><br />''</div>''<div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;">The closing ceremony today will also be attended by US President Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka Trump, who is travelling with Korea specialists from the US administration and White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders.</div>''<div class="yj6qo" style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"></div>''<div class="adL" style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px;"></div>
