Aug. 28 (UPI) -- President Donald Trump plans to observe the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks at the Pentagon in Washington, D.C., instead of at Ground Zero in New York City, those familiar with the details told media outlets Friday.

The New York Times reported that Trump originally intended to commemorate the day with remarks at the site of the Twin Towers but changed his plans because the memorial's organizers do not allow speeches.
