President Trump made a surprise visit to U.S. troops in Iraq on Wednesday. The visit, which was the first time Trump has met with American troops in a combat zone, was not announced in advance. It came amid controversies over Trump’s plans to withdraw forces from the Middle East.
White House press secretary Sarah Sanders revealed the trip on Twitter Wednesday afternoon.
“President Trump and the First Lady traveled to Iraq late on Christmas night to visit with our troops and Senior Military leadership to thank them for their service, their success, and their sacrifice and to wish them a Merry Christmas,” Sanders posted.
