Russian Foreign Ministry: Moscow sees no obstacles to the supply of Turkey with the second regimental set of S-400 air defense systems

Russia can supply Turkey with the second regimental set of the S-400 anti-aircraft missile system, there are no obstacles for this. This was stated by the director of the fourth European department of the Russian Foreign Ministry Yuri Pilipson.

Turkey may receive a second regiment of S-400 air defense systems if it turns to Russia with a corresponding request. According to the Russian diplomat, there are no "obstacles and unsolvable tasks" in the issue of supplying anti-aircraft systems to the Turks, despite opposition from a number of Western countries, in particular the United States. Although the Americans introduced restrictive measures against the Russian military-industrial complex, supplies weapons it won't be reflected.



We do not see any unsolvable tasks on the way to the implementation of this project

- leads RIA News Pilipson's words.

Turkey became the second foreign state and the first NATO member country to purchase the Russian S-400 anti-aircraft missile system. The United States did not like this deal very much, which excluded Turkey from the F-35 fifth-generation fighter program and banned the supply of these aircraft to the Turkish Air Force. Despite this, Ankara refused to return the anti-aircraft system to Russia and replace it with Western systems. According to Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar, the S-400 will be used in the event of an external threat to the country.

To date, the Turks are armed with one regimental set of S-400 air defense systems, but do not exclude the purchase of a second one. Two regiments of S-400s, as you know, were purchased by China, but India went the furthest, having signed a contract for the supply of five regimental sets of S-400s. There are also potential buyers of this complex who have expressed a desire to purchase it, but have not yet realized their plans. According to American analysts, this list includes 13 countries representing mainly the regions of the Middle East, Southeast Asia and Africa.

      Now the Sultan needs to throw all kinds of goodies: a grain deal, a gas hub, weapons. Not because he is some kind of strategic ally of ours. This passenger is temporary. But we must make him believe in himself, let him spread his wings and swear with Greece and Sweden. This discord within and around NATO only plays into our hands. It would be nice if he got involved in a war with NATO allies or left NATO. And then we'll see...

        The idea is undoubtedly interesting, but in this case, the supply of air defense systems must be stipulated as an indispensable condition for Turkey not to supply Ukraine with anything other than aspirin and diapers.

          You can negotiate anything with Erdogan, but Erdogan will not forever be on the Turkish throne. Elections in Turkey are already this year. So very soon these S-400s may end up in the hands of Bandera ...

        it is necessary to flirt with the Sultan through the prism of understanding that in 351, we were at war with the Turks.

        I haven’t heard anything dumber, if we build and invest, then away from our borders, Turkey is such a partner, ideally let them devour each other like spiders in a jar, NATO and Turkey, its Turan project is a direct threat to Russia, and threats need to be stopped

      All true.
      First, Endogan showed himself as a killer of pilots, then as an ally of terrorists.
      And then we gave him the S 400 and were ready to give the Su57.
      Then he began to steal oil from Syria, resell our gas, and give weapons to Ukraine.

      The stump is clear, for such merits, only C 400 and deliver.

      He, they wrote, either puts them on duty or takes them off, bargaining with the West for buns ....

      Apparently, the Russian establishment has long lost the thread of what is happening: who is fighting with whom, who has what plans, interests, etc. fool

        The Russian establishment (like any other) does not fight, it trades and increases its capital, but ordinary people fight, on the one hand, on the other. How much longer must this madness go on for ordinary people to understand?

      "They can't see."...?... It's so convenient, pretend to be "blind."
      Turkey is an active member of NATO, supplying technological weapons to Ukraine and pursuing a hostile foreign policy in the Crimea and the Caucasus.

      And how does Turkey sell weapons to Ukraine? That money doesn't smell?
      Yes, they sell them non-lethal weapons, but it's still unpleasant.

      Russian propaganda from all irons:
      In Ukraine, we are at war with all of NATO,
      Turkey supplied armored vehicles, drone to Ukraine
      Reality:
      The Russian Foreign Ministry sees no problems in supplying the S400 to the largest NATO member in Europe
      This is a bi-polar girl. And we are surprised how one geochess player (fake) was driven by the nose for 8 years hi

      According to Turkish Defense Minister Hulusi Akar, the S-400 will be used in the event of an external threat to the country.

      Translation: "We will use the S-400 if NATO fighters enter our skies."

      We are not able to protect the border regions with Kakland, not to mention Engels, we are not able to create a continuous radar coverage at least in critical zones and we are scattered with such powerful air defense and missile defense systems! Someone has surrounded himself with merchants-traitors and hopes to win? Or maybe there is no such goal?

      You don't have to jump around without looking back. Erdogan has elections and the United States will do anything to leave him with a nose. And there is the Hub and Akkuya and the gas pipeline.
