Former President Obama tweeted a September 11 message of remembrance for those who lost their lives in the 2001 terrorist attacks. 
“We remember everyone we lost on 9/11 and honor all who defend our country and our ideals. No act of terror will ever change who we are," he wrote.
President Trump expressed similar sentiments in an address given at the Pentagon, one of the targets of the attacks.
“The living, breathing soul of America wept with grief for every life taken on that day," Trump said. "We shed our tears in their memory, pledged our devotion in their honor, and turned our sorrow into an unstoppable resolve to achieve justice in their name.”
“The terrorists who attacked us thought they could incite fear and weaken our spirit. But America cannot be intimidated, and those who try will soon join the long list of vanquished enemies who dared to test our mettle,” the president continued.
CBS News notes that nearly 3,000 people were killed in the 9/11 terror attacks.
