Trump cancels visiting American cemetery because of bad weather

Trump was designed to place a wreath of flowers and hold a moment of silence on Saturday in the US cemetery and memorial “Aine-Marne”, located near “Belleau Wood”, about 100km northeast of Paris.

Instead of this scheduled ceremony, Trump spent most of the day at the meeting and lunch with French President Emmanuel Macron at the American Ambassador's residence in Paris, where he is standing during performances marking the 100th anniversary of World War I.

Participants instead of Trump was White House Chief of Staff retired Navy General John Kelly, as well as Chief of the General Staff General Joe Dunford; as well as several other members of the White House staff.

The battle of “Belleau Wood” was critical during the war and an important meeting in the history of the Navy Corps. However, the one who decides whether to fly “Marine One”, President Trump's helicopter, is exactly the American secret service. Paris was covered by clouds last day, with fine rainfall recorded all Saturday.

Trump is projected to join dozens of world leaders this Sunday, at a ceremony under the Arch of Triumfi to mark Gunfire Day. He is also expected to give speeches in American cemetery and memorial “Surenes”, west of Paris, before returning to Washington.

The annulment of Saturday's visit drew criticism over Trump, from those who said the president should find the opportunity to travel towards “Aine-Marne”, despite weather conditions.

Ben Rhodes, deputy adviser to National Security of former President Barack Obama, accused Trump that “further honouring American soldiers who gave their lives for us”, while adding that the White House should have spare options.
