Trump to meet with Turkey’s Erdogan
By Mark Hensch - 05/10/17 08:08 PM EDT
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan will visit Washington on May 16, according to the White House. President Trump will meet with the Turkish leader at the White House during his visit.
"The two leaders will discuss how to further strengthen our bilateral relationship and deepen our cooperation to confront terrorism in all its forms," according to the White House statement.
Erdogan earlier Wednesday strongly criticized Trump’s decision to arm Syrian Kurds in the fight against ISIS.
“I hope that this mistake will be reversed immediately,” he said of the move. "We want to believe that our allies would prefer [to] be side by side with ourselves rather than with the terror groups.”
U.S. officials announced Tuesday that Trump signed off on a plan “to equip Kurdish elements of the Syrian Democratic Forces.”
The SDF will reportedly receive small arms and equipment for the fight to retake Raqqa from the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.

Adolph Edrogan really hates it when the Kurds can shoot back.
