"We are not going to ask permission from the United States": Erdogan spoke about the tests of the S-400 air defense system

Turkey does not intend to ask the United States for permission to test the S-400 anti-aircraft missile systems purchased from Russia. This was stated by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Commenting on the statement of the US State Department spokesman Morgan Ortagus, in which the United States threatened "in the strongest possible way" to condemn Ankara's actions if the information about the testing of the S-400 air defense system is confirmed, Erdogan confirmed that tests were being carried out in the area of ​​Sinop in the north of the country from 13 to 17 October and said that Turkey is not going to ask permission from the United States.



Yes, tests have been carried out in Sinop, are being carried out. And we're not going to ask permission from the United States, whether we can do it or not. Hence, these gentlemen are concerned that there is weaponowned by Russia

- he told reporters, stressing that Ankara is "determined" and will "move on, as planned."

At the same time, Erdogan recalled that Greece, which is also a NATO member, has been in service for several years with S-300 air defense systems, also Russian-made, and no one asks them any questions.

Greece has S-300 systems and they use them. Does the US say something about this?

- said Erdogan.

Earlier, Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar said that the Russian anti-aircraft system will be used independently of NATO systems.

The S-400 will not be integrated into NATO's command infrastructure. They will be involved independently

- he explained.

          Increased attention to the Turks because the IMF has already bought Greece - they owe three times more than the whole of Greece with its statues and Acropolis costs. That's about Greece and no one worries. And Erdogan put not only on NATO, but also (which is a much more terrible sin for the West) on the IMF. And he is “to blame” for America not because he has Russian missiles. The fact that, unlike Greece, Turkey does not want to drive in loans for 3 generations ahead. This is a sin, so a sin ...

An interesting methodology is to throw on the VO the idea that Putin and the Sultan "have muddied something together."

        And Erdogan is a cunning demon, holding his nose to the wind, instantly catching new smells in the world kitchen. It is understandable that he has a foolish ambition, but he unambiguously calculated the probable consequences of the demarche with regard to his SONATNIKS and concluded that “they have no methods against Kostya Saprykin”.

      Erdogan is speaking correctly. He understands that the West is worried that Turkey will strengthen its air defense and a better system. And who owns the sky, he owns the battle. So man Erdogan. He must understand that they can turn from potential friends into potential enemies. The war in Karabakh showed how important it is to have a powerful, correct, echeloned air defense system.

      Of course, they will not be integrated - the S-400 was taken for that, so that if something happens, there would be something to land the flyers of our dear NATO partners.

            Citizen of Ukraine is soapy, what do you care about Russia?

            In Ukraine lives (according to the zeroed national leader) a fraternal people, to whom I have no questions.
            On the contrary, this is his claim to me, because it was as if I (in the person of Russia) chopped off a piece of territory from him in violation of international treaties, and unleashed a war on his territory, for which he gave grounds for hostility.

              We did not ask you to love Russia. Your love for us is not a problem. And if you do not like Russia. Then there is a road (see Cord's song "Road".) Gentlemen

                Crimea stubbornly, again and again comes into my pocket for subsidies and subsidies. Not to mention the international sanctions he caused and the "wise" Putin counter-sanctions, which are emptying my wallet even more actively than the sanctions.
                Just because. I don't give a damn about other people's pockets.

      The S-400 will not be integrated into NATO's command infrastructure. They will be involved independently

      Greece has S-300 systems and they use them. Does the US say something about this?
      they do not say anything because Greece provided its S-300 to everyone in a row for study, for training aviation to overcome air defense, etc. the sale of the S-300 to Greece turned out to be a concrete set-up for us and gave a lot of useful material to our "partners", I really hope this will not happen with Turkey. Although how can you guarantee something? Suppose we reached an agreement with Erdogan, so in a year another will take him, as they have already tried, and in his place they will put their own pro-American, and then what will happen to the effectiveness of our S-400? In a couple of years it will be studied up and down and will be easy to overcome. I think the sale to China and India is relatively safe and justified.

      "We are not going to ask permission from the United States": Erdogan

      Man !!! He put it specifically to the West. bully By the way, Putin also noted this in a recent meeting that it is pleasant to deal with Erdogan. Something they still definitely muddied ............

      Erdogan is a specific man, no doubt about it.
      But, it seems to me, it has zapadlo to sing the praises of this citizen, remembering our deceased pilot.
      Not all opponents of our enemies should be unconditionally appointed as our allies

      Erdogan is still that cunning beast on his own mind, but he is not an ally, as VLADIMIR Ilyich said - fellow traveler, he has his own plans and interests, somewhere we talk and together solve some problem, but for the most part he is an enemy
