The Turkish president said yesterday that he would negotiate the acquisition of F-35 fighter aircraft during a meeting with US counterpart Donald Trump this week.
Speaking on Fox News’ Special Report, Erdogan was asked if he was looking forward to a green light for the acquisition of F-35 during his visit to Washington, where he will have a meeting with Trump on Thursday.
“At this stage we will negotiate again on this issue. We expect that the US will also do what they need-both for the F-35s and the issue of the F-16s and their production and maintenance, “the Turkish president said.
