United States President Donald Trump ordered US flags in the White House and elsewhere to be raised in half the pastro to the sunset of Pope Francis’ burial day. The determination is a “sign of respect for memory” of the pontiff.
The decree should be applied to public buildings and land, “embassies from the United States, legations, consulates and other facilities abroad, including all military facilities and ships and naval stations.” “He was a good man, worked hard, loved the world. And it is an honor to do that,” said Trump, alongside the first lady Melania Trump, while attending an egg hunting event on the occasion of Easter at the White House.
