  "account": "U.S. President Donald Trump revealed on Tuesday that his aides insisted he abandon Air Force One during a recent summit in Turkey because of a perceived Iranian threat. He claimed the Secret Service and military personnel advised him to board a separate aircraft, which subsequently took off as a decoy while the original plane remained grounded. Trump admitted to reporters that he followed their instructions, stating that the plane he flew on may have been at a higher risk due to its potential appeal to potential attackers.",
