Erdogan: The USA does not yet have Patriot air defense systems for Turkish supplies

Washington has not yet responded to Ankara’s request for Turkey’s supply of Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems (SAM). This was stated by Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan.

Returning by plane from Baku, Erdogan gave an interview to Turkish journalists, in which he stated in particular that Ankara had not yet received a response from Washington to a request for the supply of American anti-aircraft systems.

Regarding the supply of Patriot air defense systems, I will say very clearly. There are currently no Patriot air defense systems that America would be willing to deliver to us. We made an offer and said: "if you deliver us Patriot air defense systems, we will buy them from you"

- he said.

In addition, the Turkish leader added, the US still has not provided Turkey with the previously promised support in the Syrian province of Idlib. However, he did not specify what kind of support the Americans promised the Turks.

In the course of our conversation with Trump, we were given a promise to support us. However, no support has been received so far. Apparently, we need to negotiate again (...)

- he said.

Earlier, Bloomberg reported that Turkey sent the United States a request for the supply of two Patriot air defense batteries as support against the backdrop of the unfolding situation in Idlib province. The Turkish Ministry of Defense did not rule out the deployment of air defense systems on the southern border of the country - in Hatay, to monitor the situation in the Idlib de-escalation zone.

It would be time for him to understand for a long time that if the situation worsens, Turkey will receive only hot kisses from America from America and no one will help Turkey.

He seems smart, but doesn’t understand such things? or pretends ...

I was in the Transcaucasia, could Mishiko ask how he was "helped" by the Yankees?

[cniza]

Apparently I did not believe ...

He passed ears, did not hear ... it happens when morning procedures are neglected.

Mishiko spoke in an incomprehensible language, even though they were half the same nationality ...

[rocket757]

It’s not clear. When the topic is, one might say, burning, how can you not understand what they are warning you about ??? That and on the fingers it would be all clear, a couple of characteristic gestures and ready, everything was explained.

[cniza]

Well, the Sultan does not understand gestures, especially if they are kind ...

Mishiko, of course, was the same Mr. comic; he probably showed off-topic gestures.

Well, what did the Sultans go for? In all, they must be supported.

The times of the Ottoman ports have sunk into oblivion ..... they crushed everything, where did the real Sultan come from?

[Sgan]

Perdogan F-35 and Patriots do not need anything, let him buy from Russia. So Russia is better, and Turkey’s neighbors are calmer ...

Victor.
In the light of recent events (NATO allies have already sent, so they have sent) Erdogan began to rush to extremes (from threats against Syria, Russia and Iran to requests for a meeting with Putin). At the same time, he is transferring the last remnants of his armored vehicles to the Idlib region (he is up to some kind of subtlety). You can understand him in a simple way: - will leave Syria amid fanfare, the opposition protects his defeat and - kirdyk; - will continue in the same spirit, will suffer a real defeat, which he will not be forgiven in Turkey - again kirdyk. The United States will not fit "in the field" for him (elections are on the way), and the "Europeans" will even dance in funerals.

[cniza]

A lion!
The Sultan, and generally in the East, has his own approaches and understandings, regarding agreements and other obligations ...

In the area of ​​the Suk al-Khamis market in the south of Tripoli, only one Turkish UAV was shot down.

[Maz]

only today, the 25th division liberated the villages of Kafr Nabeul, Khazarin, Khas, Baskal and Saklya. This is not to say that the terrorists did not show resistance, but their main forces are now deployed near Neyrab, therefore, vast Idlib territories simply surrender in exchange for a slight advance towards the M-5 highway.

By the way, the Ministry of Agriculture of Russia increased the quota for the import of Turkish tomatoes to 200 thousand tons per year. Before that, there were 150 thousand.

[Thrifty]

Yeah, he’ll sell the trump to him for an interest-free and non-revolving creed! Moreover, he will also pay extra for the Turks to receive these patriots from the USA

[basmach]

I have more and more often thought- was it worth it to help him stay in power in the recent past. Was the game worth the candle?

[serzh.kost]

So where did you get the idea that Russia informed the Sultan about the upcoming coup? besides rumors are there any facts? Do you think our intelligence is so strong?

[Normal]

Well, how then do you, in turn, determine the degree of strength or weakness of our intelligence? Then what facts do you have, or nothing other than rumors and speculation?

[serzh.kost]

I did not give an assessment to Russian intelligence. I asked if there is any reason, facts to believe such rumors?
you must agree that in order to obtain such information in the NATO country, before the Sultan knows, you need to have intelligence at least as good as Soviet.

[protoss]

this rumor, it seems to me, was launched by Fidan's trolls to add more confusion to the history of the coup. now in turkey it is already clear to everyone that the putschists were "led" all the way and let them break the wood.

Everything is much simpler and without much conspiracy. It so happened that on the eve of the "putsch" the planned meeting of Russian Foreign Minister S. Lavrov and US Secretary of State D. Kerry took place, who in a private conversation dropped the phrase that the United States will definitely support the events that will take place in Turkey in the coming hours and provide support to the forces "goodness and justice". Well, then you know ... In short, Kerry let it slip himself.

Erdogan: The USA does not yet have Patriot air defense systems for Turkish supplies

It is a pity, of course, but if it does, you will definitely need to do KU three times, how will the Sultan's pride survive? About "from today on my knees" not in the know.

[cniza]

They will immediately appear if they refuse the S-400 ... the game is on and it is not yet clear who and for whom ...

Trump had in mind moral support.

Erdogan rushes about and loses moral and military support even among his "accomplices" in NATO. As for Trump, he refused Erdogan in the supply of military equipment, did not give him the opposition to be torn apart, and got off with only blah blah solidarity.

Sultan noticed that to deploy them, I mean the Turkish forces, this is at least a year ...

[Romario_Argo]

Turks have already bought and deployed 2 S-400 divisions
+ ordered 2 more S-400 divisions by March 2020
In February, the Russian Armed Forces received 4 S-400 divisions in 1490 regiments near Tosno + 2 more divisions are expected in Yekaterinburg 185 ZRP and Samara 568 ZRP
In total there will be 65 S-400 divisions with plans of 56 by 2020
maybe a typo was in the Ministry of Defense

[cniza]

65 S-400 divisions with plans of 56

Look at the numbers - mirrored, where there is a "mess" ...

[Sky strike fighter]

While in power in Turkey, Erdogan will not give him either the F-35 or the Patriot. Erdogan is too ambitious and his policies are contrary to the interests of the main US allies in the region by Israel and the KSA. So either
with them in everything, but then let him forget about his ambitions and plans for a new Empire, independent politics or against them in everything, for the Muslim Brotherhood, that is, roughly speaking along the path of Iran, but on the side of the Sunnis. Erdogan is now between these two options and does not know what to choose. On two chairs, he clearly will not sit.

[cniza]

These are his problems, but the USA cannot simply unfasten Turkey ...

Trump is handsome, he can promise to support Turkey, and not only morally; maybe even good to say something about Turkey on camera ... In general, easy.
Erdogan probably naively believed that for him in Idlib before the Russian Federation they would harness ?! Well, he "naively believed", and Trump intricately put it; and on his Wishlist, and on his interests in Syria. For the situation may not develop as the United States would like, but it is stupid to introduce new variables into an easily predictable situation.

[shahor]

In this situation, it would be necessary for our effective managers to pry in advance and offer the S-300 to the Turks out of stock ... Or at least resell the S-300 from Syria - all the same, the Syrians do not use it ....

[Voltsky]

Throw these stinging comments :)
I’m not from the Russian Federation, and it’s not that I would openly lay down, but that doesn’t concern me ... You are here without me, you don’t pour a bucket of feces on your distinguished ones.

Quote: Voletsky

So learn to read and understand first in Russian, and then comment.

[Voltsky]

The blatant negativity of the message was not there ?! You wanted to speak out about the decisions made by your elite, as you put it "effective managers". And I got it on the vine, because I'm not interested in it, and that's not what my post was about. And if you start to write on my words in the style of communal gossip "here he is, and here she is"; then perhaps you should get acquainted with the Russian language, and how to read it.
ps If you didn’t know, then in the Baltics one of the purest Russian dialects, because we do not use neologisms brought from the English language, although they know it en masse. Being in Moscow, I was frankly surprised by all sorts of "roflit, hyipanut" and other things, right now we also have "hyipanut".

[shahor]

My dear, you do not understand the Russian language and the meaning of what is written. It is useless to discuss with you. And - the Russian leadership does not need protection from foreign ... readers. Protect yours in your native language.

"And not that yes, and not that no."

[avib]

Did I miss something? Has Turkey bought the С400? What "Patriot" ?! This is the same direct competitor to C400 !!! Some strange Erdogan.

[Voltsky]

usual diversification, because the capabilities of the Russian Federation in countering their own S-400s are not known. And Russia is a global player, and a very dangerous neighbor; and it’s doubly dangerous if you, being her neighbor, have different views and interests from her. That is, it is impossible to exclude the fact that the Russian Federation will make you cancer, and therefore Turkey is trying to be more independent, but everything is moving in the direction that the United States will stick it on the cheek.
So we can safely say that we are watching the Brazzers studio in the Middle East performed by political giants

[serzh.kost]

Meanwhile, the barmalei captured several more villages near Serakib and came close to the city. I hope the Syrians have enough strength for defense.

[Ural resident]

Now attacks are already underway on Serakib, the broads and they want to catch it too, while the 25th division is deployed south.
The tactics are the same, the point attacks of Turkish artillery on infantry and immediately the attacks of mercenaries. True, the city is bigger than Neurab will be, I hope the Syrians will survive.

[serzh.kost]

yeah, seeing how the Syrians defend themselves, they may well siphon ... a big city and a large number of garrisons require defense and you need to know how to defend yourself. Turkish art beats unhindered, aviation? no, have not seen ...

[Ural resident]

Turkish aviation does not fly, but arta is pounding. You can watch the video of the broads, firstly Turkish drones calmly barrage, where is the air defense? Secondly, the art is punctuated by the buildings and clusters of foot soldiers, each shot is 2-3-killed, according to Neyrab about 20 I only counted from the video. There are no reports about aviation, neither about ours nor about the Syrian one, only in the south the offensive operation is supported.

[protoss]

As I understand it, Turkish checkpoints remained in Seracib. so they’re sitting there and they can probably correct the artillery fire.

[Ural resident]

Yes, the Americans will not give a patriot, especially in such a situation. Such systems are an element of politics - if they sell it, along with Erdoganushka’s obligations, he signs what Trump needs, then the conversation will go on, and even then it will be delayed for several years. They would now exchange Erdogan for their own - he obviously took the S-400 for independence from the United States.

[primala]

I read the comments and decided to insert five kopecks. The Muslim world is a strange world. They can be at enmity with each other as much as they want. But they will never accept the "infidels" ... not with good ... and even more so. Erdogan DOES NOT resolve issues in Turkey. "Doctor" Ko decides for him. Which closely "works" with both the Americans and the Israelis. Israel is already selling oil to Turkey. Question: who is selling !? Syrian, of course. Americans are in one team with Israel and Great Britain.
Great Britain - gray cardinal of roulette Fed.
USA - the headquarters of the "elite", and the machine d \ dollar.
Israel is a performer of dirty deeds.
Turkey will continue the conflict with Russia. At the same time, they will dull their vigilance, saying that this is the negotiations.
IT DO NOT BE TRUSTED FOR ANYONE !!!
You know more than me. My assumptions may be wrong.
But I would not trust anyone. She would have sent everyone, like our Zhirik.

[Bshkaus]

Wait a second, what did he want?
He himself trolled the United States, buying the S-400 from us))).
Although ... it's okay, he already has experience, he will once again publicly apologize, but he will hand over the S-400 for detailed study to the United States, as in his time to Putin, and the F-35 and the Patriots will be for it.
A common situation, an ordinary quarrel with his wife is not a reason for divorce, they kiss, hug, promise not to quarrel anymore and go to "bed")))).

[rotkiv04]

That creature is cunning, I hope Putin will no longer save this scum

[Volder]

SAM Patriot - a sieve with a tarnished reputation. Therefore, if Erdogan decides to use this air defense system in a real combat situation, then this will further lower the prestige of American weapons. And why do you think the United States froze the supply of F-35 Turkey? Due to the fact that the S-400 will definitely detect the stealth, and Turkey will talk about it (even privately). In America, no fools give the opportunity to disgrace themselves.

[borberd]

It is not clear what the Sultan expected when he spat with almost all of its neighbors and allies? He did all the time what he wanted, put it on everyone with a parting. And now, when he burns, suddenly, does someone owe him something? Strange dude this Erdogan.
