Supreme Court rejects Trump's National Guard plan

The US Supreme Court has temporarily rejected Donald Trump's plan to deploy National Guard troops to the Chicago area. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

The court made this decision based on a lawsuit filed by the leadership of the state of Illinois and the city of Chicago. The lower court's ruling was upheld, resulting in the suspension of plans to deploy hundreds of military personnel to the area.

The court's decision emphasized that the government did not provide sufficient legal grounds for the use of military forces. According to the Supreme Court, the president can only take control of the National Guard in the event of emergencies.

At the same time, three members of the court voted against this decision. The Trump administration had assessed the protests near Chicago as dangerous and stated that military forces were necessary to protect federal institutions and personnel.

However, the leaders of Illinois and Chicago noted that the protests were mostly peaceful and that the situation was under control by local police. Illinois Governor JB Pritzker described the court's decision as an important step.

He emphasized that this decision prevents excessive expansion of central government powers. As the court process continues, the issue of deploying the National Guard to Chicago may be reconsidered in the future.
