Greece to get US draft letter approving purchase of F-35 jets - sources

Greece expects to receive a draft letter of acceptance next week from the United States of its request to buy F-35 fighter jets, two Greek sources with knowledge of the matter told Reuters on Friday.

"The (Greek) defence minister will receive a draft letter of acceptance on Monday," one of the sources said.

Greece sent an official request to the United States for the purchase of 20 Lockheed Martin-made F-35 fighter jets in June 2022.
