White House Photos of the Week: Highlights of business at the White House and activities of the president during the week of March 21-25, 2018

In pictures, it looks like national security is a focal point in the White House. As a scheduled meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in Singapore was canceled this week, Pres. Trump met with South Korea's Moon Jae-in at the White House, marking a contrast in relations between the U.S. and the two enemy nations. On Wednesday Trump headed to New York on Marine One, flanked by support aircraft.   By week's end, the president congratulated Naval Academy graduates. Here are the photos highlighting activities of the week as selected by the White House Press Office.
