US President Trump says Washington is working with Turkey over F-35 issue after Ankara acquired Russian air defence missiles
"I've had a good relationship with President [Recep Tayyip] Erdogan," US President Donald Trump told reporters during a Cabinet meeting.
US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday the situation with Turkey is not fair because Turkey wanted to buy US Patriot missile systems and Washington wouldn’t sell to Ankara. "With all of that being said, we're working through it. We'll see what happens, but it's not really fair," he added."They were not allowed to buy Patriots here foolishly, and Turkey is a NATO member," Trump said.TRT World'sTrump said Turkey was forced to buy the S-400 system by his predecessor Barack Obama, leading the Pentagon to halt plans to sell F-35 fighter jets to the country.
Following protracted efforts to purchase an air defence system from the US with no success, Ankara signed a contract in 2017 to purchase the S-400s from Russia.
