Statement from the US regarding F-16 sale to Turkey
In a statement from the US Department of State, it was said, "We support the modernization of Turkey's F-16 fleet, but Congress has a key role in the process."
The US Department of State has issued a statement regarding the F-16 sale process to Turkey.
"CONGRESS HAS A KEY ROLE IN THE PROCESS"
The statement from the Department said, "We welcome the Turkish parliament's approval of Sweden. However, the process is not yet complete. We are waiting for Hungary to take action. The Biden administration supports Turkey's modernization of its F-16 fleet. However, Congress has a key role in the process."
CNN Türk Washington Representative Yunus Paksoy reported the developments with the following words:
They need to initiate a 15-day process. They did not provide a timeline for this. A senior official from the White House told us, 'President Biden has long expressed his support for the F-16 sale; the sale of F-16s to Turkey is also in the interest of the US.'
In the US, a narrative is determined for such issues and sent to all institutions. Congress, the White House, the Pentagon, etc. However, the Pentagon reached out to me before everyone else and said, 'We are working in a way that will be in the interest of all parties,' and added, 'Turkey is a key country in NATO.' There is no difference in the rhetoric from yesterday to today.
