Turkey’s Erdogan Says Delivery Preparations For Russian S-400 System In Progress

ISTANBUL, Turkey, July 9 (NNN-ANADOLU) – Turkish President, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, said on Monday that, preparations for the delivery of Russian-made S-400 air defence systems are continuing, and their loading works are in progress.

Speaking to the press in Istanbul, prior to his departure for Bosnia Herzegovina, Erdogan said, the S-400 missiles will be brought to Turkey by plane, as the Turkish Ministry of Defence and the General Staff are deciding on their locations.

Turkey’s purchase of the S-400 missiles from Russia, has sparked threatened sanctions from the United States, but Erdogan said, U.S. President, Donald Trump, spoke of no sanctions against Ankara, after they met in Osaka, Japan, late last month, on the sidelines of the G20 summit.– NNN-ANADOLU
