Trump hosts Turkey’s Erdogan at the White House as the US considers lifting a ban on F-35 sales

  • Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan visits the White House today to meet U.S. President Donald Trump and finalize trade and military deals.
  • This visit comes after Erdogan attended a gathering convened by Trump on Tuesday during the United Nations General Assembly, where leaders discussed the nearly two-year conflict in Gaza.
  • Erdogan accused Israel of genocide in his U.N. address, calling Israel's actions occupation and mass destruction based on the October 7, 2023 attack by Hamas militants.
  • Turkey aims to conclude agreements including a $1.4 billion payment for jets, a major F-16 deal, Boeing aircraft purchases, and liquefied natural gas contracts worth over $50 billion.
  • The visit may lead to lifting the U.S. hold on advanced F-35 fighter jet sales to Turkey despite ongoing U.S. concerns over Turkey’s S-400 missile system and human rights record.
