Former US President Donald Trump suggested a potential shift in policy regarding Turkey’s access to F-35 fighter jets. When questioned by reporters, Trump indicated he was considering actions that would satisfy Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, specifically referencing the jets. Turkey was previously removed from the F-35 program following its purchase of Russian S-400 missile defense systems. The US cited security concerns related to the S-400s’ compatibility with NATO systems as the reason for Turkey’s exclusion. Trump’s comments offer a possible, though currently unsubstantiated, path toward Turkey’s re-inclusion in the program. No specific details were provided regarding the nature of any potential policy change or the conditions for Turkey’s return. The statement was made during a media interaction and reported by Turkish Minute.
