Trump: My plane faced increased risk in Turkey

U.S. President Donald Trump confirmed that his plane was at greater risk after a secret swap of equipment in Turkey, conducted under instructions from the U.S. Secret Service to protect him from Iranian assassination threats. During his visit to Ankara for the NATO Summit, he was secretly moved from the presidential plane to a smaller military aircraft aboard a decoy truck, in an unusual operation that reports attributed to security threats. Trump noted that the aircraft he traveled on was more vulnerable, and that the instructions were focused on safeguarding his life, knowing that there was a looming threat which the American authorities did not publicly disclose.
