According to Reuters, U.S. President Donald Trump told his Turkish counterpart Tayyip Erdogan that he wanted the issue over Ankara’s procurement of air defense systems to be resolved without damaging bilateral ties.

Turkey has so far dismissed the warnings and said it would not turn back from the deal.
