Former President Donald Trump confirmed that he secretly switched aircraft while departing Turkey last month following reports of a security risk. The change involved moving to a different plane while the original aircraft, designated as Air Force One, continued its flight with journalists and senior staff members on board.
The maneuver has sparked controversy regarding the safety of those remaining on the original flight, which reportedly functioned as a decoy. Some journalists who were on the initial plane have expressed frustration over their unwitting involvement in the security protocol.
