Trump plans to host Erdogan at the White House next week
US President Donald Trump has announced that he will host Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan at the White House next week. The meeting, scheduled for Thursday, according to Trump's announcement on his Truth Social platform, will take place at the White House.
The leaders of the US and Turkey are set to discuss a range of issues, including trade and military agreements. Trump has emphasized the importance of maintaining a good relationship with Erdogan and has mentioned ongoing discussions about F-35 fighter jets and the potential purchase of Boeing aircraft.
Turkey, a NATO member, maintains good relations with both Russia and Ukraine, and it is not clear from Trump's post whether discussions on ending the Russian war against Ukraine will be part of the negotiations.
Trump has expressed his anticipation to welcome Erdogan at the White House and has highlighted his previous cooperation with the Turkish president. The exact timing of the negotiations on these matters has not been publicly announced as of yet.
During his first term, Trump had already received Erdogan at the White House. The upcoming meeting between the two leaders is expected to be significant, with a positive conclusion anticipated for the F-35 fighter jets discussions and potentially a significant deal for F-16 fighter jets.
