Erdogan confident Turkey to be readmitted to US F-35 programme in stages ...Middle East

Washington booted Turkey out of its F-35 programme in 2019 and a year later imposed sanctions on Ankara over its purchase of an S-400 Russian surface-to-air missile defence system, but since Trump's return to office, the two NATO allies appear keen to end the dispute.

He gave no further details about the agreement but said the move was “part of a geo-economic revolution.”

The sanctions on Turkey’s defence sector have soured ties between the two allies but last weekend, Washington’s envoy to Ankara Tom Barrack said they were likely to be over “by the year’s end”.

In March, Erdogan spoke to Trump about the need to finalise a deal to let Turkey buy US F-16 fighter planes and be readmitted to the development programme for F-35 warplanes.

And last month, he said he saw an end in sight to the sanctions, saying Turkey had seen them eased under Trump.
