The head of the majority of the Democrats in the Senate, in a written communication he had with expatriate actors, emphasized that the Turkey to receive the American F-16because Ankara is a “threat to global security”.
More specifically, the New York senator Chuck Schumer expressed this particular opinion in writing in the context of the communication he had with expatriate actors, after taking the initiatives to inform the Congress about the sale of F-16s to Turkey.
As the Democratic senator noted, Congress will have the final say in evaluating this defense contract, which will judge whether such a sale serves the best interests of the United States and its allies.
Here is his position in detail:
“Turkey is a major threat to global security and we must do everything we can to resist its aggression in the Middle East and the Eastern Mediterranean regions. The notion that the United States must trust Turkey to respect global rules and the international order is not only dangerous, it endangers our security and that of our allies. I strongly believe that the US and the international community should take diplomatic action to ensure that Turkey is held accountable for any wrongdoing it may commit.
Ultimately, it will be up to Congress to evaluate the implications of this proposed arms sale and whether it is in the best interests of the United States and our allies.”
