Donald Trump to Boycott Travel to Italy - 349

DateWednesday, January 13, 2010 at 12:14PM

In support of Amanda Knox, an American student recently convicted of murder in Italy, business mogul Donald Trump annouces a boycott of Italy.

Noting on his blog that he will not be traveling to Italy, Trump also called for others to boycott the country until it releases Amanda Knox from prison.

“I hope somebody in Italy goes after the “wild man” prosecutor who, as I understand, is already being looked at for abuse of power in an unrelated case.  I watched his actions during the trial and they were shocking.  In any event, Donald Trump will not be going to Italy, and in fact will be boycotting Italy, as long as Amanda Knox is sitting in jail.”

Meanwhile, tourism to the United States — keepers of unconvicted prisoners in Guantánamo Bay — is picking up.
