Trump will sign a decree punishing the desecration of the American flag.
US President Donald Trump will sign a decree punishing the desecration of the American flag, including its burning. This was reported on August 25 by Fox News channel.
"The American flag is the most sacred and revered symbol of the United States of America, and its desecration is inherently offensive and provocative. This is a manifestation of disrespect and hostility towards our country, as well as an act used by groups of foreign citizens designed to intimidate and threaten violence against Americans," the newsletter, which is at the disposal of the TV channel, says.
It is specified that according to the decree, the country's prosecutor General will be required to conduct court proceedings, as well as bring to justice people who violate this law.
On April 5, the American leader proposed to bring Washington under federal control to combat the growing crime. He noted that many criminals are confident of their impunity due to their young age. Trump proposed changing the law and prosecuting juvenile offenders as adults, sending them to prison "for long periods" starting at the age of 14.
On August 12, troops of the US National Guard arrived in Washington to fight crime. It was clarified that all forces placed on high alert are ready for possible clashes.
