Why the US Should Not Sell F-35 Fighter Jets to Turkey

http://GreekReporter.com – Why the US Should Not Sell F-35 Fighter Jets to Turkey: Former U.S. Assistant Secretary of Commerce and prominent lobbyist Andy Manatos offers a quick take on why selling F-35 fighter jets to Turkey would be both dangerous and financially insignificant for the United States. Turkey was expelled from the F-35 program in 2019 after acquiring Russia’s S-400 missile defense system, a move that raised serious security concerns in Washington.

President Erdogan confirmed that Turkey will negotiate the acquisition of F-35 fighter jets during his upcoming meeting with the U.S. President.
