Erdogan and Putin in weapons deal incompatible with Nato
By EUobserver
Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdogan and Russian president Vladimir Putin on Monday in Moscow discussed a deal for Turkey to purchase Russia's S-400 air defence missile systems. The weapons are incompatible with Nato defence systems, prompting US vice president Mike Pence to warn Turkey it must choose between being a critical player in Nato "or risk the security of that partnership by making reckless decisions".
