Is it a way of reducing tension with Russia? Donald Trump was shown on Tuesday, August 5 in the morning on the roof of one of the buildings of the White House and joked in the possible installation of “nuclear missiles.”
The US president, flanked by bodyguards and under the protection of elite shooters, wandered over twenty minutes on the press room. He inspected the site of the future dance hall that he will have, under the eyes of dozens of journalists agglutinated below, at a good distance.
When asked what he intended to build, he replied, certainly to joke: “missiles” and then “nuclear missiles”, before imitating with his arm, apparently, the launch of such a machine.
The former real estate developer said he was “taking a walk.”
“It’s just another way of spending my money in the country,” said the billionaire, ensuring that he was financing the renewal work done at the White House at his request.
Estimated work of $ 200 million
The United States and Russia have dedicated themselves to rhetorical escalation for several days. Donald Trump recently announced that he had ordered the deployment of two nuclear submarines near Russia, in response to the statements considered provocative by former President Dmitri Medvedev, who has multiplied martial comments on Westerners on social networks since 2022.
Moscow has raised a moratorium on the deployment of intermediate -rank weapons, accusing Washington to shake the arms race.
The US president is determined to leave his fingerprint in the White House very specifically, inspired by the style responsible for his private property. He paved the grass of the famous Rose Garden and covered the oval office of golden ornaments.
The 79 -year -old leader announced above all the construction of a mass reception room, in what promises to be the heaviest place on 1600 Pennsylvania avenue for more than a century. He said that the work, estimated at $ 200 million, would be financed by itself, as well as by private donors, while indicating that it could well be, in the end, the only one I would pay.
