华盛顿讯——特朗普总统周日表示，他已同意将一座大型凯旋门的建造计划改造为“顶级军事综合体”，该综合体将配备狙击手岗位和无人机存储设施。
“应美国军方的强烈要求，出于国家安全目的，我已同意将这座多年前内战时期就规划好的宏伟凯旋门，在阿灵顿纪念大桥旁的环岛处改造为顶级军事综合体/凯旋门，”特朗普在其Truth社交平台的帖子中说道。
这座250英尺高的拱门原计划于本月开工，施工地点位于华盛顿特区对岸波托马克河、靠近阿灵顿国家公墓的一处环岛。按照原方案，拱门将以花岗岩包覆，顶部设置三座金色雕像，并设有观景台。
总统周日表示，这座拱门将“在屋顶和广场区域容纳、存储大量无人机，且能够快速部署大批狙击手”，同时还将“存储大量狙击弹药”。
特朗普称，“全球没有任何同类设施”。
“全球59个顶级城市和首都中，华盛顿特区是唯一一个没有凯旋门的城市，但现在我们将拥有一座，而且无疑是其中最宏伟的一座！”他补充道。
本届政府表示，这座拱门的建造是特朗普总统为在国家首都留下个人建筑印记的整体计划的一部分，旨在纪念今年美国《独立宣言》签署250周年。但该计划也遭到了反对声浪，批评者担忧这座纪念碑的高度会干扰华盛顿主要纪念碑与阿灵顿国家公墓之间的视线，同时其紧邻罗纳德·里根华盛顿国际机场的位置也引发了担忧。
美国联邦航空管理局于周五认定，尽管民主党议员担忧该项目会进一步加剧本已复杂的空域状况，但这座拱门不会对往返附近机场的航班构成安全隐患。

Trump says he agreed to convert triumphal arch into “top grade Military Complex”

Washington — President Trump said on Sunday that he has agreed to convert plans for a massive triumphal arch into a “top grade Military Complex,” equipped with snipers and drone storage.
“At the strong request of the United States Military, and for National Security purposes, I have agreed to convert the magnificent Triumphal Arch, planned since the Civil War Era many years ago, at the Receptive Circle adjoining the Arlington Memorial Bridge, into a top grade Military Complex/Triumphal Arch,” Mr. Trump said in a post on Truth Social.
Work on the 250-foot-tall arch was expected to begin this month, with plans to start excavation on the site across the Potomac River from Washington, D.C., on a traffic circle near Arlington National Cemetery. The arch is proposed to be clad in granite and topped with three golden statues and have an observation deck.
The president said Sunday that the arch would “house, store, and have the rapid ability to use large numbers of drones, plus Snipers, on both the roof and plaza areas,” along with holding “large quantities of sniper ammunition in storage.”
Mr. Trump said there will be “no facility like this anywhere in the World.”
“Out of the 59 top cities and Capitals, Washington, D.C., IS THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD THAT DOES NOT HAVE A TRIUMPHAL ARCH, but it will now and, by far, the greatest of them all!” he added.
The administration has said that the arch’s development, which comes as part of a broader effort by the president to put his architectural stamp on the nation’s capital, will recognize the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence this year. But it’s drawn pushback amid concerns that the monument’s height could interfere with sightlines between major D.C. monuments and Arlington National Cemetery, along with its proximity to Ronald Reagan Washington International Airport.
The Federal Aviation Administration determined on Friday that the arch poses no hazard to flights coming into and departing from the nearby airport, despite concerns from Democratic lawmakers that the project would further complicate an already complex airspace.
