US President Donald Trump has filed a petition with the Supreme Court requesting permission to continue construction of a ballroom at the White House. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Reuters.
The Trump administration had previously initiated a project to build a new ballroom on the White House grounds. However, opponents of the project filed a lawsuit demanding a halt to construction. After rulings by lower courts, the case reached the Supreme Court.
In his appeal, the president insists on the need to continue construction work, emphasizing the project's national importance. The Supreme Court is currently reviewing the matter.
According to Reuters, this case highlights another confrontation between the White House administration and the judicial system. The actions of the Trump administration are also being widely discussed in a political context.
