The event began with a wreath-laying ceremony, followed by Trump's speech.
The ceremony took place amidst ongoing controversy over Trump's plan to build a 250-foot arch near the cemetery.
The arch, which would be located between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery, has faced opposition from veterans and families of fallen soldiers.
The National Capital Planning Commission voted 8-4 to allow construction of the arch, despite concerns raised during a nearly 10-hour hearing.
Veterans and families of fallen U.S. Soldiers argue that the arch risks disrupting military burials at Arlington National Cemetery.
The event is set to begin at 11 a.m. With a wreath-laying ceremony, followed by the president delivering remarks 30 minutes later.
