Trump, Pence miss Veterans Day observance at Arlington Cemetery
Trump returned to Washington on Sunday evening after a weekend in France, where he attended events commemorating the 100th anniversary of the armistice that ended World War I. The president paid tribute earlier in the day to U.S. and allied soldiers killed in the so-called "war to end all wars."
Vice President Mike Pence did not attend Sunday's Veterans Day observance at Arlington National Cemetery, where
Veterans Affairs Secretary Robert Wilkie represented the administration. Wilkie made brief remarks and laid a wreath at the Arlington's Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
Defense Secretary Jim Mattis, Labor Secretary Alex Acosta, and Acting Attorney General Matt Whitaker were among the other Cabinet officials in attendance.
Pence departed Washington late Sunday to travel to Japan, where he will discuss North Korea, China, trade and other issues with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. During a stopover in Alaska, Pence gave remarks to soldiers and airmen at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson.
“You are the vanguard, on the edge of the Pacific, standing watch every day, guarding over the American people,” Pence said.
Note that
Jim Acosta did not attend either.
