"September 11 did not change the world in a single day, but it changed the direction in which the world was heading"

CNN Portugal11 September 2026 at 17:58

Miguel Baumgartner, a commentator for CNN Portugal, wrote an analysis about what changed in the world 25 years after the September 11 attacks. The article presents a quote from him that synthesizes his perspective on the impact of these events.

According to Miguel Baumgartner, September 11 did not change the world in a single day, but altered the direction the world was following. This idea suggests that the attacks had progressive and lasting consequences, rather than an immediate transformation.

The comment was published as part of the commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the terrorist attacks that occurred in the United States on September 11, 2001. The article serves as an introduction to the more detailed analysis the commentator presents on global changes since then.
