Donald Trump said on Sunday that he would look into requests from families of the September 11, 2001, victims to release government records that could reveal more about Saudi Arabia’s potential role in the attacks. The families have long argued that certain extremist religious leaders in Saudi Arabia gained influence in the government and may have supported the hijackers. Fifteen of the 19 individuals who carried out the attacks were Saudi citizens, though the Saudi government has consistently denied any involvement. The families are asking the U.S. government to declassify and release documents that could provide more clarity on these claims. During a trip to Ireland, Trump was asked about the issue and said he would consider the families’ requests. "I’m going to look at it when I get back," Trump said before returning to the United States. He noted that the families had approached him about the matter on Friday. This comes amid a long-running legal struggle between the families and the Saudi government, which they say has avoided accountability for its alleged role in the attacks. Terry Strada, a 9/11 victim’s relative who lost her husband, Tom, in the attacks, called on Trump during a remembrance event in New York City to "tell the Saudis to stop lying." Strada criticized past U.S. administrations for prioritizing relations with Saudi Arabia over supporting the families of the victims. She spoke during a ceremony marking the 25th anniversary of the attacks, where family members read the names of the victims. Strada urged the current administration to "stand with the families, stand with the survivors." The families have expressed frustration over what they describe as repeated betrayals by government officials. Strada said, "It has been one betrayal after another," but added that President Trump still has the opportunity to change that. The issue highlights ongoing tensions between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia, as well as the desire of 9/11 families for transparency and justice.
