He said this, commenting on the information that US senators called on US President Joe Biden to postpone the sale of F-16 fighter jets to Turkey.
“Decisions like this are not just made by the executive branch.
These are decisions in which our colleagues from Congress also have the right to vote, ”RIA Novosti quotes him.
According to him, the US administration made it "clear" to Congress about its support for sales of the F-16.
Earlier it was reported that a group of US senators from both political parties wrote a letter to Biden urging them to postpone the sale of F-16 fighter jets to Turkey until Ankara approves the applications of Sweden and Finland to join NATO.
