Relations between the United States and Turkey could be entering a new phase as reports suggest President Donald Trump is considering allowing Ankara to rejoin the F-35 stealth fighter program. According to The New York Times, citing senior U.S. administration officials, Trump is expected to discuss the issue with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan during the NATO Summit in Ankara. Turkey was removed from the F-35 program in 2019 after purchasing Russia's S-400 air defense system, prompting U.S. sanctions and congressional restrictions over security concerns. The reported move has sparked concern in Israel. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has urged Washington not to provide F-35 fighter jets or related technology to Turkey, warning that such a decision could alter the military balance in the Middle East. #turkey #f35 #donaldtrump #erdogan #nato #israel #netanyahu #usa #s400 #russia #middleeast #usturkey #stealthfighter #airforce Times Of India (TOI) Is The Largest Selling En
