Trump interrupts his speech about Iran to talk about the renovations at the White House

In a speech dedicated to the situation in Iran and the soldiers decorated with the Medal of Honor, President Donald Trump surprised the audience by abruptly changing the subject to the renovations at the White House. He praised the modernization work, stating that it will transform the building into a 'spectacular' space and joked about the disturbance caused by the construction noise, which bothers his wife, Melania Trump.

Trump emphasized that the project is ahead of schedule and under budget, promising that the future ballroom will be 'the most beautiful in the world.' The renovations include the demolition of the East Wing, a controversial project in which the president is personally involved, considering the design details. The building will have an estimated area of 8,000 square meters, exceeding the current size of the White House. After this digression, Trump returned to the subject of military operations and American heroes.
