President Donald Trump's trip to the World Economic Forum in Switzerland faced an unexpected snag on Tuesday evening. An electrical issue prompted Trump's Air Force One to return to Joint Base Andrews in Maryland for an aircraft switch.
The White House reported the problem as a 'minor electrical issue' shortly after takeoff. Despite this, the Press Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, assured the press that the journey would proceed smoothly on the new aircraft.
This brief interruption did not dampen expectations for Trump's participation in the international economic forum, highlighting the robust protocols in place for presidential travels.
