6月25日（路透社）——据路透社周四获得的正式通知文件显示，唐纳德·特朗普政府已正式通知国会，计划向土耳其出售价值逾7亿美元的数十台喷气发动机。
路透社周三率先报道，尽管部分议员因土耳其持有2019年购入的俄罗斯防空系统而反对，特朗普政府仍将推进这笔交易。

美国国务院在6月24日周三晚提交给国会的通知中表示：“美国政府已考虑政治、军事、经济、人权和军备控制等因素，准备批准这些装备的出口许可。”
此次出售对下个月即将举办关键北约峰会的安卡拉，以及被特朗普视为关键盟友的土耳其总统塔伊普·埃尔多安而言，都是一次重要的示好姿态。
美国国务院未立即回应置评请求。
如果国会希望阻止这笔交易，有15天时间提出联合否决决议。该决议需在参众两院通过，随后可能会被特朗普否决。
据包括一名美国官员在内的两名消息人士透露，众议院外交事务委员会资深民主党议员、此次发动机出售的强烈反对者纽约州众议员格雷戈里·米克斯曾在与政府的非正式审核过程中提出反对，且未批准该一揽子交易。
米克斯周三在一份声明中批评政府未能以“诚意”向他通报这笔交易对双边关系以及土耳其持有S-400系统的影响。
“这些装备数年内都不会交付，而政府一再无视我们对美国政策关键方面的信息与澄清请求，”米克斯说道。
当被问及喷气发动机、F-35项目以及他对安卡拉峰会的计划时，特朗普周三表示：“我可能会做一些让他们非常开心的事。”
这些由通用电气（GE.N）生产的发动机，将为土耳其首款国产战机KAAN提供动力。该项目于2016年启动，作为这个北约成员国提升国防自给自足能力计划的一部分。土耳其曾因过去与西方关系反复无常以及部分武器禁运而感到沮丧，尽管土耳其官员承认，要取代构成其空军主力的美制F-16战机仍需数年时间。
土耳其2019年购入俄罗斯防空系统的行为导致美土关系恶化，并削弱了国会对安卡拉的支持。作为回应，美国实施了制裁，并将土耳其踢出F-35战机项目。
国会还通过了一项法律，禁止在安卡拉继续持有S-400系统期间向土耳其出售F-35战机，称俄罗斯防空系统会对美制战机构成安全风险。尽管特朗普执政期间美土关系有所回暖，但这一问题始终是两国间的主要摩擦点。
周四，多名民主党议员表示反对此次发动机出售，并警告政府不要向安卡拉出售任何F-35战机。
“我们不能奖励埃尔多安政府，同时它还在继续违反美国法律，并威胁我们可靠的民主盟友，”新罕布什尔州众议员克里斯·帕帕斯在社交媒体帖子中说道。“绝对不能向土耳其出售F-35战机。”
“如果总统继续沿这条路走下去，我将提出联合否决决议，”内华达州民主党众议员迪娜·提图斯在社交媒体帖子中针对此次喷气发动机出售说道。

June 25 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump’s administration has formally notified Congress of its intention to sell dozens of jet engines worth more than $700 million to Turkey, according to a copy of the formal notification seen by Reuters on Thursday.
Reuters was first to report on Wednesday that the Trump administration planned to press ahead with the sale despite objections from some lawmakers over Turkey’s possession of Russian defense systems, acquired in 2019.

“The U.S. government is prepared to license the export of these items having taken into account political, military, economic, human rights, and arms control considerations,” the State Department said in its notification to Congress, which was dated June 24 and sent late on Wednesday.
The sale is an important gesture to Ankara ahead of a pivotal NATO summit there next month and to Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan, whom Trump considers a key ally.
The State Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Congress has 15 days to introduce a joint resolution of disapproval if it wants to block the sale. Such a resolution would need to pass in both chambers and could be vetoed by Trump.
Representative Gregory Meeks of New York, the top Democrat on the House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee and a prominent critic of the engine sale, had raised objections during an informal review process with the administration and has not given his green light for the package, two sources, including a U.S. official, said.
In a statement on Wednesday, Meeks criticized what he described as the administration’s failure to make a “good-faith” effort to brief him on the implications of the sale for bilateral ties as well as Turkey’s possession of the S-400s.
“These items will not be delivered for years, and the administration repeatedly ignored persistent requests for information and clarification on key aspects of U.S. policy,” Meeks said.
Asked on Wednesday about the jet engines, the F-35 program and his plans for the summit in Ankara, Trump said: “I’m going to probably do something that will make them very happy.”

, will power Turkey’s first indigenous combat jet KAAN, a major project launched in 2016 as part of the NATO member’s efforts to be more self-sufficient in its defense. It had grown frustrated by past hot-and-cold ties with the West and some arms embargoes, although Turkish officials acknowledge that it will take years before it replaces the American-made F-16s that form the backbone of its air force.
Turkey’s 2019 acquisition of the Russian air defense systems has soured ties with the United States and hampered congressional support for Ankara. In response, Washington imposed sanctions and removed Turkey from the F-35 fighter jet program.
Congress also passed a law prohibiting any sales of F-35s to Turkey as long as Ankara remained in possession of the S-400s, saying the Russian systems pose a security risk to U.S.-made combat aircraft. Since then, it has remained a major flashpoint between the two countries even though Turkey enjoys warmer ties with Washington under Trump.
On Thursday, several Democratic lawmakers said they opposed the engine sale and cautioned the administration over selling Ankara any F-35s.
“We cannot reward Erdogan’s government while it continues to violate U.S. law and threaten our reliable, democratic allies,” Representative Chris Pappas of New Hampshire said in a social media post. “Absolutely no F-35s to Turkey.”
“If POTUS continues down this path, I will introduce a joint resolution of disapproval,” U.S. Representative Dina Titus, a Nevada Democrat, said in a social media post in reference to the sale of jet engines.
