Trump confirmed that the Lincoln carrier deployed in the Middle East will be replaced

On 15 August, the President of the United States, Trump 14, confirmed that the aircraft carrier Lincoln, whose life conditions on board the ship and the mental health of its crew had been questioned as a result of its long-term deployment to the Middle East, would be replaced. Trump told the media at Andrews Joint Base, Maryland, that the Lincoln carrier was “going or about” leaving and would “be replaced by another very similar ship”. According to 13 United States sources, the United States is preparing to send the George Washington carrier to the Middle East to replace the Lincoln carrier. When asked about the growing concern of the families of the soldiers on board for the safety of the crew, Trump stated, “No, they did not”. He also claimed that the deployment time of the Lincoln carrier, which had been deployed for nearly nine months, was “very insufficient”. (In Russian)
