"Major Shift in US-Turkey Relations: Trump Announces Lifting of Sanctions. In a move that could have significant implications for global security, former President Donald Trump has announced that the United States will lift sanctions on Turkey that were imposed in 2019 after the country's decision to purchase a Russian S-400 missile defense system. The sanctions, which were seen as a major point of contention between the US and Turkey, were a key component of the US's efforts to deter NATO allies from acquiring Russian military technology. The move is likely to be seen as a major concession to Turkey's President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who has been a key ally of Trump's in the region."
Trump also announced the U.S. will lift sanctions on Turkey that were imposed after Ankara bought a Russian missile defense system.
