Biden Administration Allegedly Suspends F-35 Transfer to Greece to Promote Diplomatic Resolution with Turkey

The transfer of F-35 aircraft to Greece has been temporarily halted by the Biden administration. This decision is a response to Turkey's opposition to Sweden's inclusion in NATO, especially following an incident involving the burning of the Koran writes Dana Levi on her Twitter feed.

By suspending the transfer, Washington aims to placate Ankara and potentially secure Stockholm's membership in the Alliance. The United States is taking these actions to foster diplomatic relations and maintain peace.
