Donald Trump welcomes Recep Tayyip Erdogan to the White House for a first visit since 2019

US President Donald Trump said Friday he will welcome Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to the White House next week and expects a resolution to a long-running rift on fighter jets. It will be the first bilateral visit to the White House by Erdogan since 2019 during Trump's first term. Erdogan said in July that he had reached an "agreement" with Trump on the state-of-the-art jets.
