US President Donald Trump said on Friday that he plans to travel to Türkiye for a NATO summit scheduled to take place in the capital Ankara on July 7-8, The Caspian Post reports, citing Anadolu.

“We are doing a lot of trips. We will be going to Turkey,” Trump told US Air Force service members ahead of his departure from Joint Base Andrews for Camp David.

His comments came as he presented a Boeing 747 aircraft donated by Qatar, which is set to be added to the Air Force One fleet.

Trump also stated that he will “at some point” return to China for a major conference.

“President Xi (Jinping) is coming here in September, but we're going back for a big conference that's in China,” he said.
