Is not a good American non parade, how Strategic Fooyou Agency Director-zhaozhong talk, change your mind?!
For a lifetime... You can see the grand parade in the United States...
Speaking of parade, we can think of India, North Korea's unique parade, and even think of China's Russia's impressive military parade. But when did you hear of the US parade?
The United States does not parade, the military parade is a battlefield in the United States! But if it was a little swollen, it felt that the other part of the ocean was shaken by the other side of the ocean. Trump must have a grand parade.
CNN: Trump asked The Pentagon to prepare for the parade
The director has previously summed up the tradition of the American army.
Why the United States does not parade, first of all cultural reasons, the United States has always liked to sing out of itself. In any key area, the United States would have a deep sense of crisis if the United States failed to lead the world for second and 20 years.
Moreover, as the most advanced country in the world, the United States has the most powerful army in the world. It doesn't need to show strength by parade. It directly opens the army to the door of the family.
But the situation has changed. It is clear that the current president of the United States, Trump, does not think so. He has almost a kind of obsession with the parade.
Let's first look at the United States military tradition: the history of the United States has held many field independence day parade; but after the end of World War II, formed a big parade in four years a presidential inauguration tradition; but in 70s, this tradition also gradually fade, are big instead of the parade.
George Bush on the parade in June 1991
The latest grand parade in the United States is the "national victory" parade after the 1991 Gulf War, and it is the peak of the parade. All modern weapons, Apache, Tomcat F-14, F-15 eagle, F-18 Hornet, C-130 Hercules, B-52 fortress and so on everything...... At that time, many of the friends of the post - 90s were not born. You might as well think, we had any weapons and equipment at that time.
After the review of the military parade after 1991, it was said that Obama was "willful" to restore the parade at the inauguration. And it's the two parade. Although the military parade of the Obama period was far less than before, it was good to watch the parade at the back of the bulletproof glass.
When he came to Trump, he also wanted to make a parade at the inauguration ceremony. After all, there was Obama's example in front of him. I didn't expect it to be directly rejected by the military. We know that the relationship between Trump and the media has always been poor, so, at the time of the media is to say: the Trump team to the inauguration ceremony of a "parade" Korean or Russian style, because the military's opposition, Trump was forced to cancel the parade at the inauguration of the idea.
Of course, the sea, land, air, Marine Corps and coast guard forces sent 4 fighters to help each other. After all, even the rugby games were assisted by planes.
At that time, the Washington Post published an interview with Trump: "as a great president, there must be a lot of things to do. One of them is the leader of the country's cheerleading team. "We are going to show people that we are strengthening our military strength and we are going to show our forces," Trump said. "
Trump has been looking forward to the military parade, the Department of defense can not agree ah ~ last July, Trump was invited to participate in the French National Day parade. Has been full of praise ah, said: "this is one of the greatest parade I've ever seen, and in French President Ma cron conversation also said to hold a parade in france.
Trump took part in the French parade
As soon as he returned, Trump told his assistants that he was fully attracted by the military parade and also wanted to hold such a big military parade in the United States. Well, the president has spoken, waiting here in response to the Department of defense...... This was the last few days, and in January 18th, in a top American secret meeting, Trump turned this desire into a presidential directive. Finally, this thing looks and parade.
After media reports, White House press secretary Saunders also made a statement confirming that the plan was in progress.
"President Trump is very supportive of the excellent soldiers of the American army, who risk their lives every day to safeguard our national security," Saunders said. "He has asked the Department of defense to explore a celebration that all Americans can express thanks."
The time may be double eleven this year. This day is not only the Veterans Day of the United States, but also the anniversary of the first World War's victory and the end of the 100th anniversary in November 11, 2018.
The location in the center of Pennsylvania, Trump Avenue, connecting the White House and Houses of Parliament, known as "the heart of the city", is the official parades and folk protest sites, is also a part of the national highway system.
Although it was still in the preparatory process, the details were not determined, but the wish came true, and the president was happy for a while.
But... Well, "the most powerful country does not need a military parade"? No wonder Trump's slogan has always been "to make America great again"...
