Trump to Review Families' Request to Release 9/11 Records on Saudi Role
US President Donald Trump said he will review requests from September 11 victims' families to declassify records related to Saudi Arabia's alleged involvement in the attacks. The families have long sought these documents to support claims that extremist religious leaders in Saudi Arabia influenced the hijackers, 15 of whom were Saudi nationals. Saudi Arabia denies any role. Trump made the statement during a trip to Ireland, indicating he would consider the request upon returning to Washington. Victims' relatives have urged the administration to support their cause.
