Latin American Summary, June 23, 2024.
The former US president and eventual Republican presidential candidate, Donald Trump, once again promised that, if he wins the November elections, he will build an air defense system Iron Domereferring to the complex that Israel owns, actively used by Hebrew forces to repel rocket attacks launched by Hamas, Hezbollah or other adversaries.
“In my next term we will build a great Iron Dome over our country, a Dome like we have never seen before,” Trump said this Saturday at a campaign event in Washington. “We will build it in the USA. “Israel has it, why don’t we have it?” asked the former president.
“We are more of a target in many ways than Israel“Trump said to justify the need for this system. Likewise, he added that all parts of the system will be produced in the US, which will mean the creation of new jobs in the country.
In previous interventions, the Republican candidate has already mentioned this idea. Thus, at the beginning of May, Trump announced that he will build in the US “the best Iron Dome” in the world. Among other promises in the security sphere, the presidential candidate maintained that the first thing he will do upon assuming office will be end the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
