Biden's inauguration turns into a Hollywood apocalypse
On the eve of the inauguration of the new US President, the American capital is turning into a fortress armed to the teeth.
The correspondent of PolitNavigator reports this, writes Rossiyskaya Gazeta.
“Washington, on the eve of the inauguration of the 46th US President Joseph Biden, scheduled for Wednesday, is turning into a heavily armed fortress. The American capital has already been flooded with about 25 thousand National Guard troops. Bridges across the Potomac River connecting the District of Columbia with the neighboring state of Virginia are closed. 12 metro stations are closed. And the territory near the Capitol, where Democrat Biden will take the oath of office on the Bible on January 20, for the first time in the history of the country is bristling with fences and numerous checkpoints,” the material notes.
It is indicated that preparations for the inauguration ceremony, against the backdrop of FBI warnings about the possibility of protests by armed radicals, completely paralyzed the central areas of Washington.
“The White House and the Capitol, the territory of the National Mall, Pennsylvania Avenue are surrounded by concrete blocks and barbed wire. Armored vehicles and soldiers with automatic weapons are stationed at intersections in the city center. If you don’t know that the inauguration ceremony of the leader of “the most democratic country in the world” will take place here, you might seriously think that the security measures taken are a set for some Hollywood apocalyptic film,” writes RG.
