Turkey will abandon Russian air defense systems within six months — the S-400 Triumph anti-aircraft missile system, so that Washington would give Ankara permission to purchase the latest American F-35 fighters. This was stated by US Ambassador to Turkey Tom Barrack at a press conference in Abu Dhabi, Bloomberg reports.
According to the ambassador, the Russian complexes, which were supplied by Moscow six years ago, are "not used" by Turkey, but their presence still creates problems in relations between Ankara and Washington.
"I am convinced that these problems will be solved in the next four to six months," Barrack said.
When asked if Turkey is getting closer to abandoning the S-400, he replied:
"Yeah."
