Όσον αφορά τον Πρόεδρο Ντόναλντ Ντραμπ του αρμόζει ο τίτλος : «Εμπορος των Εθνών»
Σε καμμία περίπτωση δεν αντιπροσωπεύει τον ηγέτη και τις αρχές που διέπουν μια ελεύθερη δημοκρατική χώρα, ως ΗΠΑ..

The United States will continue working with Turkish companies producing some parts for F-35 fighter jets until 2022, the White House announced on Tuesday.

According to Bloomberg, the US Defence Department has confirmed for the first time that the Trump administration has softened a pledge to oust Turkey from the fighter jet programme by March of this year. Washington’s threat was made after Ankara bought a Russian S-400missile defence system last year, which put a strain on the NATO allies.

Pentagon spokeswoman Jessica Maxwell said that the Turkish companies would continue to produce 139 components for the jets until 2022, Anadolu Agency reported. “Our industry partners will carry out the continuing contracts,” she stated, adding that the Pentagon is still looking for alternatives to the Turkish companies.
