Trump did not tell Erdogan he would extradite Gulen: White House official

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump did not commit during a meeting with Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan at the G20 summit two weeks ago to extradite a Muslim cleric based in the United States, a White House official said on Monday.

“While meeting with President Erdogan at the G20, the president did not commit to extradite Fethullah Gulen,” a senior White House official said. Erdogan blames Gulen for a failed coup in 2016.

1. So they discussed it.

2. He 'did not commit' to doing it

Doesn't say he rebuffed the idea, either.

3. Depending on the White House official

Or is this more lying to cover their real intentions?

4. If they can extradite Gulen,

Then no one who was not born on this soil is safe.
