Dublin residents have expressed mixed views as President Trump prepares to visit the city and meet Irish leaders.

President Donald Trump commemorated the 25th anniversary of September 11 at the Pentagon on Friday, recalling how the nation came together in grief and determination. “We were all New Yorkers that day,” he said. The Pentagon was among the sites where 184 people died, as nearly 3,000 were killed overall.

At ceremonies in New York marking the 25th anniversary of 9/11, some relatives of victims openly urged the federal government to hold Saudi Arabia accountable for the attacks.

Bloomberg This Weekend covers news, politics, lifestyle and culture. The program highlights President Donald Trump’s arrival in Ireland for a two-day visit, with meetings planned with the country’s prime minister and president, alongside the closure of a key Middle East oil pipeline.

Saudi Arabia is urging Washington to take direct military action against the Iran-backed Houthis after their advance along Yemen’s Bab el-Mandeb Strait. The group reached Mayyun, or Perim, Island and captured the coastal town of Dhubab after government forces withdrew. Trump reportedly rejected direct U.S. action for now but offered intelligence and targeting support to Riyadh.
