Trump clarifies 9/11 memorial site
U.S. President Donald Trump chose to commemorate the September 11, 2001 attacks at the Pentagon instead of New York, explaining that the reason for changing the plan was because he was not allowed to deliver a speech at the New York ceremony. The New York Times confirmed that Trump initially intended to mark the anniversary at the World Trade Center site, but he changed his mind. The September 11 attacks resulted in the deaths of around 3,000 people when hijackers from al-Qaeda crashed two airplanes into the Twin Towers in New York and a third into the Pentagon, with a fourth plane crashing in Pennsylvania. The three sites will host U.S. officials, as the president will remember the victims and first responders who risked their lives to save others.
