Erdogan, Trump discuss Ukraine, Syria, defense issues, Turkey says
[IsraelTimes] Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has spoken by phone with US President Donald Trump and discussed efforts to end the war between Russia and Ukraine and to restore stability in Syria, Erdogan’s office says.

It says Erdogan told Trump that the United States needs to finalize the F-16 procurement process and Turkey’s re-participation in the F-35 program to develop defense industry cooperation between the two countries.
How many years has he been trying, and failing, to get those planes from America? What does he have to offer now that would change the answer?

#2 ...to develop defense industry cooperation between the two countries. Why give support to (Fascist) Turkey until it disgorges its land grabs in Cyprus and Syria?
