The Trump administration said Tuesday night that Air Force One, which was transporting President Donald Trump to Switzerland, is returning to Joint Base Andrews in Maryland because of a “minor electrical issue.” The plane was taking the president to Davos, Switzerland, for the World Economic Forum. The president is expected to transfer to another plane and still travel to Switzerland.
“After takeoff, the AF1 crew identified a minor electrical issue,” the White House Rapid Response account posted on X. “Out of an abundance of caution, AF1 is returning to Joint Base Andrews. The President and team will board a different aircraft and continue on to Switzerland.”
Details on the electrical issue were not immediately clear.
