"Turkey is an indispensable partner of NATO," U.S. President Donald Trump said at a press conference as part of the NATO summit in London.

Trump told reporters on Tuesday in London -- where he’s attending a summit for the 70th anniversary of NATO -- that Turkey was an important U.S. ally, especially in the fight against Islamic State, and was a country the U.S. had good ties with.

“I like Turkey,” Trump said.
