President Joe Biden has expressed his full support for the deal, with no reservations.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking from Vilnius, Lithuania, ahead of the NATO summit, Sullivan emphasized that Biden has been clear in his backing of the transfer. The President will proceed with the agreement in consultation with Congress.<\/p>\n<h3>Turkey&#8217;s Request and Recent Developments<\/h3>\n<p>In October 2021, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan requested to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/us-to-move-forward-with-providing-f-16-jets-to-turkey\/\" title=\"US to proceed with supplying F-16 jets to Turkey.\">purchase  billion worth<\/a> of Lockheed Martin&#8217;s F-16 fighters. However, no deal was finalized before the Vilnius NATO summit, where other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-health-nominee-mum-on-taxpayer-funded-abortion\/\" title=\"Biden Health Nominee Mum On Taxpayer Funded Abortion\">pressing concerns<\/a> took center stage.<\/p>\n<p>One of these concerns involved securing Sweden&#8217;s entry into the alliance, a priority shared by Biden, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg, and other member nations. Sweden&#8217;s inclusion would bolster defensive capabilities in and around the Baltic Sea. However, Turkey had initially rejected Sweden&#8217;s admittance due to its belief that the Nordic country harbors Kurdish terrorists.<\/p>\n<p>On Monday, Erdogan agreed to ratify Sweden&#8217;s entry, leading many to speculate that Biden&#8217;s willingness to provide F-16s to Turkey played a significant role in this change of stance.<\/p>\n<h3>Summit Priorities: Ukraine&#8217;s Path to Membership<\/h3>\n<p>Another key priority for the upcoming NATO summit is Ukraine&#8217;s desire to join the alliance. While Biden has stated that Ukraine is not yet ready for admission, Sullivan indicated that NATO allies will send a &#8220;united, positive signal&#8221; regarding Ukraine&#8217;s path toward membership.<\/p>\n<p>Stay updated with the latest news and developments by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">clicking here<\/a> to read more from The Washington Examiner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>the F-16 jet transfer to Turkey without any hesitation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1969418,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[538],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1969417","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-washington-examiner"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cndimages.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/IMG_2758-scaled-1.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1969417","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1969417"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1969417\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1969418"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1969417"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1969417"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1969417"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
