A new report indicates that President Donald Trump is expected to travel to Turkey and meet President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, with Trump hinting the visit may include a "big bag of gifts" — likely an announcement on the sale of F-35 fighter jets. "I will probably do something that will make him very happy," Trump said. The report follows a bulletin from The Zioneer at 15:10 Jerusalem stating that Trump was expected to visit Turkey next week for the NATO summit and hinted at an F-35 deal. The prospect of an F-35 sale to Turkey has been building for weeks. On June 25, Trump revealed that Turkey had considered joining the Iran war and that he personally asked Erdogan to stay out. That same day, Vice President Vance said the U.S. may sell F-35s to Turkey pending a legal review. Trump has repeatedly called Erdogan a "friend" and a "great leader." The visit, if confirmed, would mark a significant shift in U.S.-Turkey relations and a potential major arms deal.
