The general consensus among observers was that Biden had offered assurances that he will try to push the sale of 40 F-16s to Turkey through Congress.
Erdogan clearly indicated that he got what he wanted from the deal regarding Sweden and Finland, and that declared he would leave the summit with his 'hands full'.
if Turkey attempts to rock the boat, that will reveal NATO’s limits, endurance, power, and the extent it will tolerate Ankara’s linkage of NATO’s expansion to its own revisionism.
Athens is focused on whether Erdogan will table his demands for the demilitarisation of Greek Eastern Aegean islands at the ongoing NATO summit.
US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said today that President Joe Biden “may well” meet with the Turkish president on the margins of tomorrow's NATO summit.
Still, Turkey maintains the second largest army in NATO and remains a critical, regional US ally and undoubtedly the difficult path toward a modus vivendi is pressing for both sides.
Circumstances necessitate that we see this Summit as a restart of NATO, with Greece as an organic member, after the erratic Trump administration.
