川普要求國防部爲退伍軍人節舉行閱兵式做準備

President Donald Trump said he has asked the Pentagon to stage a military parade in the nation’s capital on Veterans Day.

Trump was interviewed live via telephone on Fox News Saturday night. He said the parade would be held “up and down” Pennsylvania Avenue, the street in Washington that runs from the White House to the U.S. Capitol.

“We’ll see if we can do it at a reasonable cost,” Trump said. “If we can’t, we don’t do it.”

He said the parade would include “a lot of flyovers” of Air Force planes.

The Veterans Day holiday this year coincides with the 100-year anniversary of the end of World War I.

The inspiration to hold a military parade began after Trump watched Bastille Day events in Paris last July 14.美國總統川普表示，他已經要求五角大樓準備今年退伍軍人節那一天在首都華盛頓舉行閱兵式。

川普星期六晚上通過電話接受福克斯新聞臺採訪時說，閱兵式將在連接白宮和美國國會的賓夕法尼亞大道上舉行。

他說：“我們會看看能否在合理的費用內舉行閱兵式。如果不行，那我們沒辦法做這件事。“

川普說，閱兵式上會出現很多空軍飛機飛越上空的場面。

今年的退伍軍人節剛好是第一次世界大戰結束100周年紀念日。

川普去年7月14日在巴黎觀看了法國閱兵式後受到了啓發。
