To attend

I'm wondering if "To attend" here means "to be present at" or "to participate" or "Taking part of the event"?

" ... to speak at the Florida Democratic Party convention on December 10. Florida senator
Bill Nelson had asked Obama three times to attend; three times, Obama had said
no"

Hi, The focus of the word is on 'be present at', although Obama would of course do more than just sit in the audience. Clive
