Trump Says to Host Turkey's Erdogan at White House on Sept. 25
The meeting aims to resolve Turkey's removal from the F-35 program due to its S-400 missile system purchase and to finalize major defense deals including Boeing aircraft and F-16 jets.
- US President Donald Trump announced he will welcome Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to the White House next week to resolve the F-35 dispute and discuss a large Boeing aircraft purchase.

- The visit could mark a turning point toward restoring and expanding the US–T?rkiye military and trade relationship, as both countries finalise key defence agreements including F-35 and Boeing purchases.
- Viewed broadly, Erdogan's White House visit signals that T�rkiye's potential F-35 reintegration could reshape US–T�rkiye strategic partnership, following their June 24 meeting.
