WASHINGTON, Aug. 23 (Xinhua) — After Washington, the federal government may take control of the fight against crime in Chicago, U.S. President Donald Trump said Friday while speaking to reporters in the Oval Office of the White House.
The American capital is becoming “one of the safest places on Earth,” he emphasized, noting that the administration will later tackle crime in other cities, too. According to the president, Chicago is next.
Recall that on August 11, D. Trump announced at a press conference in the White House that he would deploy the National Guard to the District of Columbia to help restore law and order and public safety. At that time, he also named Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Baltimore, and Oakland, all led by Democrats, as problematic cities.
More than 1,900 troops from several states, including West Virginia, South Carolina, Mississippi, Ohio, Louisiana and Tennessee, have been called to Washington as part of the mission, Joint Task Force D.C. said Thursday. -0-
