The White House has not yet decided how President Donald Trump's decision to stop the transgender people from serving in the American Army.
Trump's surprise announcement on Wednesday, on Twitter, has been criticised by human rights groups and sparked protests in several US cities.
The president has said he has consulted military experts and that his decision aims to avoid the extraordinary “medical breakthroughs and divisions” that could cause the presence of transplantors in the military.
White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said the administration would work with the Pentagon to decide how to proceed. She said the president's decision is military.
The president has a lot of support for all Americans and wants to protect them at any time”, Saunders said, but added that the policy of the Transgjinor service in the army “is very expensive”.
The decision to allow transformaries to serve openly in the US Army was taken by former President Barack Obama last year.
Republicans who have lobbied against this issue at the Trump administration say they have only demanded a ban on payment for medical services related to gender confirmation and not the complete obstruction of transplants from service to military.
The conservative Republicans have proposed an amendment to the Law for Protection that would enable Penagon not to pay for transplantal operations and hormone therapy.
Some American media, however, have questioned the excuse for expenses. The Washington Post newspaper has called attention to an analysis showing that the American Army spends nearly $42 million a year on medicine for effective dysfunction, which means several times the cost valued for the medical support of the transplantors.
It is not yet clear how the decision will affect current transformers in the military.
Asked whether troops on the battlefield would return home immediately, spokeswoman Sanders said politics has not been processed yet.
Trump has said his decision is based on consultations with his generals, but reactions have been mixed.
Former US Defence Secretary Ash Carter, who has lifted the ban on transplantors last year, said that “to elect service members on other grounds, outside the military, is social policy” and that it has no place in the American Army.
The head of the Senate Committee for Armed Services, Republican John McCain, said big reports should not be made through Twitter.
Any American who meets current medical standards and has readiness should be allowed to serve”, McCain said.
Speaking to Reuters agency Jennifer Long, a transgiar veteran, said “is shocked” with President Trump's decision.
It was totally unexpected. I don't think anyone in our community has expected such a message”, said Long, who has served in the military for 29 years.
About 10,700 transformers are estimated to serve in the American Army, which has 1.4 million members. Experts estimate that another 134 thousand are transgjitor veterans. / REL
