The District of Columbia and Virginia have taken legal action to stop the triumphal arch proposed by US President Donald Trump. The monument has drawn fierce opposition from local governments.
The District of Columbia, home to the US capital Washington, and the state of Virginia have filed a lawsuit aimed at blocking plans for a triumphal arch backed by US President Donald Trump. The suit seeks to prevent the monument from going ahead.
The planned monument has met strong resistance from local governments. They fear that it could disrupt traffic and affect historic views in the surrounding area.
