Ankara, Dec 24 (AFP) Dec 24, 2018
Ankara's purchase of US missiles worth $3.5 billion will not affect a deal to acquire rival S-400 missiles from Russia, the Turkish presidential spokesman said Monday.

"The US Patriot sale process does not affect the S-400 process. We don't see one as an alternative for the other," Ibrahim Kalin said. Turkey's plans to buy the Russian S-400s has drawn rebuke from its NATO allies.
