Al Jazeera: Erdogan: US scrapping F-35 jet deal with Turkey would be robbery
Ankara faces new strains in US relationship over upcoming delivery of Russian S-400 missile system.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said it would be "robbery" for the United States to deny Turkey the F-35 fighter jets it has bought, according to remarks published in Turkish media.
"If you have a customer and that customer is making payments like clockwork, how can you not give that customer their goods? The name of that would be robbery," the national Hurriyet newspaper quoted Erdogan as saying on Thursday, as Turkey faces potential US sanctions over its purchase of the Russian S-400 missile system.

Yes to receive notifications of comments, but also the ... enables me to store the Editor's often quite numerious links on a variety of interesting news articles etc., for when I have more time to surf. This site is quite unique in providing that feature. Often, after reading it, I end up saving a particular link indefinitely and use it when posting on other sites. The rest get trashed eventually.
Also, if I post something I want the other Anon to read I have a way of knowing if he read my post. It works fairly often and sometimes lets me know what he thought of the comment.
