Republican presidential candidate in the United States Donald Trump’s the campaign organization has requested the use of military planes for Trump’s air travel in the last weeks of the campaign, says The Washington Post.
Additionally, according to emails seen by The Washington Post and people familiar with the matter, the Trump organization wants expanded flight restrictions over his residences and events, bulletproof glasses in seven states for campaign use and a fleet of military vehicles to transport Trump.
The intelligence service warned Trump about Iranian threats to kill him in September. Because of this, the campaign wants security measures to an unprecedentedly high level.
According to the news agency Reuters, the President of the United States Joe Biden has mandated security arrangements to meet Trump’s needs. According to Biden, Trump must be protected like a sitting president.
Biden said the US Secret Service should honor Trump’s request for military resources late in the campaign if it fits into the sitting president’s protection schedule.
