Turkey needs to 'get rid of' S-400s to overcome impasse: State Dept official
WASHINGTON - Turkey needs to “get rid of” the Russian S-400 missile defense system it purchased, a senior State Department official said on Thursday, to overcome a standoff with Washington, which says the procurement poses a threat to NATO defense capabilities.
Ankara and Washington have been at loggerheads over Turkey’s purchase of the S-400 system, which Washington says is not compatible with NATO defenses and poses a threat to its F-35 stealth fighter jets. “There is room for Turkey to come back to the table. They know that to make this work they need to either destroy or return or somehow get rid of the S-400,” the official told reporters at a briefing.
During last week’s meeting, Trump told Erdogan that Ankara needed to drop the S-400 system and that in return, U.S. was ready to sell Ankara U.S. Patriot systems.
