U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to support the potential sale of F-35 fighter jets to Turkey. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Reuters.
According to sources, the Trump administration may approve a deal that would allow Turkey to rejoin the F-35 program. This move is aimed at improving relations between the U.S. and Turkey.
Turkey was removed from the F-35 program in 2019 after purchasing Russian S-400 missile defense systems. The U.S. stated that these systems are incompatible with NATO standards and pose a threat to the F-35's security.
Turkey has expressed interest in purchasing F-35 jets, and the Trump administration may consider the matter favorably. However, no final decision has been made yet.
