Trump says he will consider releasing more 9/11 records after families’ request

Families have asked Trump to declassify records that could shed light on Saudi Arabia’s alleged role in the 2001 attacks

Donald Trump said Sunday that he will look into requests from families of 9/11 victims to release records that could shed light on Saudi Arabia’s alleged role in the attacks 25 years ago.

Several families have long alleged that a group of extremist religious leaders in Saudi Arabia gained influence in the kingdom’s government and aided the hijackers. Fifteen of the 19 hijackers were Saudis, but the Saudi government has long denied any involvement in the attacks.
