Ankara told to stop buying Russian oil
-
US President Donald Trump on Thursday urged Turkish counterpart Recep Tayyip Erdogan to stop buying Russian oil over the war in Ukraine, while hinting that he may drop a ban on Ankara buying US stealth fighter jets.
Mr Erdogan was making his first visit to the White House since 2019 — the same year Washington kicked Turkey out of the F-35 jet programme over the Nato ally's purchase of a Russian air defence system.
Mr Trump said they would talk "very seriously" about ending the rift over the high-tech planes, and said he was ready to lift sanctions against Ankara over the Russian S-400 missiles if the meeting went well.
But he also pushed the key issue of Ukraine with Mr Erdogan, whose country has refused to join international sanctions on Moscow and has even stepped up its purchases of Russian oil.
