- Trump expressed satisfaction with the results of the investigation into the assassination attempt on him.
US President Donald Trump said he was satisfied with the information provided about the assassination attempt that took place a year ago. This was reported on July 13 by the Fox News channel.
"The FBI, the Secret Service, everyone, the Ministry of Justice reported to me several times. I was satisfied with that," he said.
According to him, the attack was the result of a number of omissions on the part of the services providing his protection. He expressed the opinion that there should have been an employee in the building from where the shooting took place, and coordination with the local police should have been clearer. Trump added that mistakes had been made that could have been avoided, but also stressed that he was generally satisfied with the assessment of the situation in a broader context.
"Our sniper was able to hit him from a long distance with one shot in less than five seconds. If he hadn't done that, the situation would have been much worse," Trump stressed.
He also pointed out that talented professionals work in the country's law enforcement agencies, but they made a mistake that day. According to him, it was just a "bad day" for the security forces.
In 2024, Trump survived two assassination attempts. The first occurred on July 13 at an election rally in Pennsylvania. The politician was wounded in the ear at a tangent. The second attempt was made on September 15: there was a shooting at a golf club in West Palm Beach. Trump was 500 m away from the scene. The perpetrators were detained in both cases.
