Pentagon sharply criticises Turkey

The Pentagon today criticised Turkey's plans to buy Russian missile defence system S-400 instead of investing in NATO technology.

Turkey is negotiating with Russia for the purchase of the S-400 missile defence system, and negotiations have been conducted by the two presidents of the countries, Erdogan and Putin. This is not the first time Turkey has run into NATO, as Turkey has created separate reports with Russia since the coup failure in July last year.
