US President Donald Trump said he wants to build an arch in Washington, which he described as a massive structure inspired by the famous monument in Paris. Speaking to reporters on board the presidential plane 'Air Force One' late Saturday, the US president said the planned structure would resemble an arch. He added, 'We are the biggest and most powerful country,' announcing the formation of a committee to oversee the project. The arch will be the latest architectural project through which Trump wants to leave his mark in Washington. It is worth noting that a grand hall is currently being built on the White House grounds, for which the old east wing of the building was demolished, a move that has drawn widespread criticism. Trump also added that arches can be found in many places around the world, and that he wants the arch in Washington to be the largest.
