Al Jazeera: Turkey will not bow to US sanctions over S-400: Vice president
Fuat Oktay says US concerns over the Russian-made defence system are not reasonable, adding Ankara will not back down.
Turkey will never bow to US sanctions over its agreement to buy Russian S-400 defence systems, Turkish Vice President Fuat Oktay said on Sunday in reference to a deal that has strained ties between the NATO allies.
Washington has said the S-400s could compromise the capabilities of its F-35 fighter jets - for which it has a separate deal with Turkey - and warned of possible US sanctions if Ankara pushed on with the Russian deal.
Ankara has said the S-400s and F-35s would not affect each other and that it will not abandon the former.
