President Donald Trump revealed on Monday that his administration would be making a significant release of classified documents related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963. Trump confirmed that around 80,000 pages of files, containing previously undisclosed information, would be made publicly available on Tuesday. This move comes after years of public demand for transparency regarding the tragic event, with many seeking answers about the circumstances surrounding Kennedy’s assassination.
During his visit to The Kennedy Center in Washington, Trump told reporters that the release of these files had been long-awaited by the American public, noting, “People have been waiting for decades for this.” The files are expected to provide more insight into the investigation and the historical context of the assassination, a topic that has fueled speculation and curiosity for over half a century. The decision to release these documents was part of an ongoing effort to declassify information related to sensitive historical events.
