Russia, Turkey likely to sign S-400 missile deal next year

RUSSIA is likely to sign a contract for delivery of an additional batch of its S-400 missile systems to Turkey next year, the Interfax news agency cited Sergei Chemezov, head of state conglomerate Rostec, as saying today.

Turkey bought a batch of the missile systems from Russia last year, leading to its suspension by Washington from the US F-35 stealth fighter jet programme.

The United States has said that Turkey risks sanctions if it deploys the Russian-made S-400s. – Aug 23, 2020, Reuters
