US President Donald Trump on Monday revealed plans to transform America’s Independence Day celebrations next July 4 into a vast military parade, styled on France’s Bastille Day.
« We’re actually thinking about Fourth of July, Pennsylvania Avenue, having a really great parade to show our military strength, » Trump said at the start of a meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron on the margins of the UN General Assembly in New York.
During brief remarks, Trump raved about his visit to Paris last July 14 — which featured military fly overs, parades of horse guards, assorted tanks and other military hardware.
« To a large extent, because of what I witnessed we may do something like that on July Fourth in Washington down Pennsylvania Avenue, » said Trump, indicating he had discussed the event with White House chief of staff John Kelly.
