WASHINGTON (AA) – US President Joe Biden and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan will meet during the upcoming NATO summit in Lithuania, said Biden's advisor said on Friday.

"You can expect that President Biden, President Erdogan will talk in Vilnius. What format that takes remains to be seen," National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said at a press briefing.

The NATO leaders will convene for a summit in Vilnius, Lithuania's capital, on July 11-12.

The Turkish leader last met his American counterpart on the sidelines of the Group of 20 leaders’ summit in Bali, Indonesia in November.
