Trump:

Türkiye bought planes from the U.S. When you buy a plane from the U.S., if there is engine maintenance, I think we have an obligation to maintain the engines and help them maintain the engines.

Trump on Türkiye:

Türkiye has been a great ally for us.

They could have gotten into the fight on the other side. They are very powerful, but they didn't do that.

Maybe they didn't do that because of me.

Trump:

I am sure Erdogan doesn't want Iran to have a nuclear weapon.

I am sure.

BREAKING: Trump says he’ll remove CAATSA sanctions on Türkiye.

Trump:

We don't want to sanction friends.

Trump on Türkiye:

Frankly, Türkiye has been more helpful to the U.S. than many other more traditional countries.

Trump on Ukraine War:

Both Putin and Zelensky want to make a deal. It's too bad it took so long.

I think something is going to come out.

Trump on Syria's al-Sharaa:

We have a very good relationship with the new leader of Syria.

He has done an amazing job. I have a very good relationship with him.

Trump on Italy's Meloni:

I think she is a nice person, actually.

Our relationship became a little bad because she refused to help us with Iran.

It soured my relationship with her a little bit, but I like her.

Trump on Keir Starmer:

I guess the Prime Minister of the UK is no longer there, maybe because of Iran.

What he did was very unpopular.

Trump on Ukraine war:

I've seen the battlefields. They send me pictures. I actually want to say, "Don't send them to me."

Pete Hegseth sends me pictures. I say, "Pete, you know what? It doesn't help the look."

Trump on Greenland:

Denmark doesn't spend money to really help Greenland, but it's an important part for the United States.

Greenland should be controlled by the United States, not by Denmark.

Trump on Europe:

We could remove all our soldiers out of Europe.

WATCH: The full official welcoming ceremony hosted by Turkish President Erdogan for Trump in Ankara.

Trump on Ankara:

Just landing at the airport to see such a beautiful airport and to have a building named after me. I was very happy about that. That was very nice.

The airport is absolutely beautiful. The roads coming in were brand new and beautiful.

NATO’s Rutte on Trump:

I just like the man.

I think what he is doing for NATO is great news because, yes, there is a Russian threat, there is Ukraine, so we had to step up in Europe anyway.

But he was what was necessary to bring this extra impetus to the debate, to really get all these nations from 2% and now to agree to the 5%.

As I said yesterday in the press conference, Canada and Europeans are now already at almost 4% when it comes to defense spending.

So, in one year, on this trajectory to 5% in 2035, we reach the 4% in 2026.

NATO’s Rutte on Trump and Greenland:

The President was right. There is an issue in the Arctic when it comes to China and Russia trying to gain access. We need to make sure that the Arctic stays safe.

And it was a good discussion, because obviously Denmark is a sovereign country, Greenland is part of the Kingdom of Denmark, and we have to make sure that whatever investments the United States will make on Greenland.

These investments are there to stay valid also if Greenland would change its constitutional position within the Kingdom of Denmark.
