Washington: In a major development, US President Doland Trump on Monday said that he is considering providing top-end F-35 fighter jets to Turkey. As per the reports, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has strongly opposed this move by Doland Trump. Despite this, Trump appears to be moving forward with the deal. During his meeting with Netanyahu, the US president asked about the F-35 jet deal with Turkey. In response, Trump said that they are thinking about it very seriously, Arab News reported.

When asked about Israel’s concerns over the US deal, Trump brushed them aside by saying that nothing like that would happen.

Doland Trump Calls Erdoğan a Friend

US President Doland Trump has called Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan his good friend. Speaking about the tensions between Israel and Turkey, Trump said there would be no problem and added that he does not think anything will happen. It is important to note that this discussion about supplying modern jets to Turkey has drawn attention because US policy has traditionally been to maintain Israel’s military edge over its regional adversaries.

Here are some of the key details:

• In 2019, the United States had removed Turkey from the development program of the top-of-the-line stealth aircraft F-35.
• NATO member Turkey had decided to purchase a missile defense system from Russia, prompting the US to take this step.
• In recent months, hopes of Turkey receiving these jets have risen once again.
• Israeli policymakers argue that F-35 jets would give Turkey an advantage in any potential conflict.
• Israel and Turkey have particularly been at odds in Syria.
• Syria is a neighbor to both countries, and both Turkey and Israel seek to expand their influence there.
• In this context, Trump’s stance is boosting Turkey’s confidence while increasing Israel’s anxiety.
