Trump intends to turn Arc de Triomphe into military site
U.S. President Donald Trump announced his intention to transform the Washington Monument into a sophisticated military installation, to be used as a base for drones, storage facilities, and snipers positioned on the roof and in the surrounding areas, with large quantities of ammunition. The structure would be built on the banks of the Potomac River near Arlington Cemetery, despite not having Congress's approval. It would be larger than all other monuments in the world and would block the line of sight between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington Cemetery. This comes as part of Trump’s plan to leave his mark on the U.S. capital, alongside other controversial renovation projects.
