US President Donald Trump intends to participate in next week's 2nd presidential debate in Miami, which will take place less than two weeks after the president contracted coronavirus, according to Trump 2020 Communications Director Tim Murtaugh.

In press statements to "Fox News", Murtaugh said, "The President intends to debate."

Murtaugh's comment came less than an hour after the president left Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, where he had been receiving treatment for COVID-19 since Friday, and returned to the White House.

The campaign of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has already made it clear that he will travel to Florida for the next debate.
