The Secret Service advised President Trump not to leave the NATO Summit in Turkey on the newer Qatari-gifted Air Force One, according to a Wednesday report.
据周三报道,特勤局建议特朗普总统不要乘坐新交付的卡塔尔赠送的“空军一号”离开在土耳其举行的北约峰会。
Sources familiar with the matter said the president flew out of Ankara on the older Air Force One out of an abundance of caution for a potential threat from Iran, although no threats were explicitly identified, The New York Times reported.
熟悉内情的人士表示,出于对伊朗潜在威胁的谨慎起见,总统乘坐较旧的“空军一号”从安卡拉离开,尽管《纽约时报》报道并未明确指出具体威胁。
The Secret Service referred The Hill to the president’s Truth Social post made earlier in the day when asked about the assessment from officials.
当被问及官员的评估时,特勤局将《国会山报》引向了特朗普当天早些时候在真实社交(Truth Social)上发布的帖子。

他补充道:“他们非常兴奋,附有照片。这是我们从土耳其返回美国途中的一段航程,航线几乎没有偏离。”
Trump picked up the last leg of the trip on the newer plane during a stop at Royal Air Force Mildenhall, a base used by the U.S. military in Holywell Row, England.
