Belgium To Maintain Security Threat Level For Trump Visit


Belgian authorities say they have carried out security threat assessments ahead of President Donald Trump’s visit to Brussels next week but see no need to increase the national threat-alert level.

Belgium has remained on Level 3 — meaning that an attack “is possible and likely” — since the deadly suicide-bomb attacks on the Brussels airport and subway on March 22 last year.

Belgium’s Crisis Center said Wednesday that “Level 4 is not determined in any of these assessments at this time,” and that it has “no information indicating that a terrorist attack might be planned.”

Top of the scale Level 4 indicates a threat of imminent of attack.

Rallies have been organized in protest against the May 25 NATO meeting, part of Trump’s first European tour.
