Talking Turkey

Good afternoon. Here's what you need to know to end your day.

President Erdogan meets Donald Trump at the White House today in their first face-to-face engagement since a diplomatic clash over Turkey's offensive in northern Syria. Trump will be trying to move past that episode, which he helped trigger by pulling U.S. troops out of the region. At the same time, he may try to pressure Erdogan to change his mind about buying a Russian anti-aircraft missile system to ease strained ties.
