The Republican Convention held in Dallas paid tribute to the victims of the September 11, 2001 attacks. The event sought to evoke the memory of the nearly three thousand people who died that day, marking the historical significance of the date for the party.

The President of the United States, Donald Trump, and the Vice President, JD Vance, visited the sites of the 2001 attacks on Friday. The visit coincided with the period of the party convention.

The September 11 attacks were carried out by the extremist organization Al-Qaeda, resulting in the death of approximately 2,977 people in the United States.
