Trump Considers F-35 Sale to Turkey, Promises Non-Aggression Towards Israel

Donald Trump stated that the US is 'thinking about it very seriously' regarding the potential sale of F-35 fighter jets to Turkey, despite the country's previous removal from the program due to its purchase of Russian S-400 missiles. He assured Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Turkey would 'never use them on Israel'. Turkey has been pushing for its return to the program, but the final decision is not solely in the hands of the US president. Israel has strongly opposed the possible sale of the aircraft to Turkey.
