Trump marks 25th anniversary of 9/11 at Pentagon ceremony
The US president addressed a Pentagon commemoration for the nearly 3,000 people killed in the 2001 attacks.
US President Donald Trump has spoken at a Pentagon ceremony marking the 25th anniversary of the 11 September 2001 attacks.
The ceremony commemorated those killed when al-Qaeda militants hijacked four planes, striking the Pentagon, the World Trade Centre and a site in Pennsylvania. Nearly 3,000 people died.
The attacks fundamentally reshaped US foreign policy and national security, with their effects continuing to frame American security policy.
France 24 reported that Trump did not attend commemorations in New York. The broadcaster said he told the Pentagon gathering that the United States would never forget and would continue to “fight”.
The full text of Trump’s remarks was not included in the supplied account.
