Trump begins to build a wall around the White House

 President of the United States Donald Trump began construction of the wall not only on the US-Mexican border, but also around his own residence in Washington - the White House.

Report informs citing the TASS that a section of fencing along Pennsylvania Avenue, which offers a favorite tourist view of this attraction, was closed with a solid white construction fence.

The residence of the American leader is still visible from the street. For beauty, the fence is covered with white fabric, which contains some details of the project, as well as archival images featuring how the White House looked in previous eras.

According to the plans described on the website of the National Park Service, the current fence with a height of about 2 m should be replaced by a twice higher one. A new barrier about 13 feet high (almost 4 m) will be built using intruder detection technologies, thus it will be almost impossible to climb.

Such an intention - to make a higher fence at the Washington residence of the US President appeared after a series of high-profile incidents involving unauthorized entry of strangers into the protected area of the complex on Pennsylvania Avenue, 1600.
