A Turkish delegation accompanying President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan in Washington held fruitful talks with U.S. officials, Finance Minister Berat Albayrak said on Wednesday, as the NATO allies seek to overcome mounting differences.
Erdogan is in Washington for talks with President Donald Trump aimed at defusing disputes ranging from Syria policy to Turkey's purchase of the Russian S-400 missile defense systems.
