Start of large-scale construction in Washington<\/h3>\n

In Washington, D.C. partial demolition of the eastern wing <\/strong>The White House.
As reported by The Guardian<\/strong>,The dismantling is connected with a new construction project of the US President Donald Trump<\/strong> - construction a large ballroom<\/strong> worth about $250 million<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\n

\u00abIt will be a big and beautiful hall\u00bb - Trump<\/h3>\n

Back in July, President Trump said that the new building would \u00abbe the most beautiful hall in the world\u00bb and would be built next to the main building of the White House<\/strong>, \u00abwith respect for historical architecture\u00bb.<\/p>\n

\u00abIt will not interfere with the existing building. It will not touch it. It will be next to it, in full respect of the architecture that I adore.
It's my favourite place. I love it,\u00bb Trump said during a speech in July.<\/p>\n

According to the project, the new ballroom will have an area of about 8,300 square metres<\/strong> and will be able to accommodate up to 2,000 guests<\/strong> during official receptions and state events.<\/p>\n

Reaction in the US<\/h3>\n
