Turkey agrees to $2.5 billion deal for four S-400 SAM systems
Turkey has agreed to pay Russia 2.5 billion dollars for its most advanced missile defense system S-400, an official said late Thursday.
The official, speaking to Bloomberg on condition of anonymity, said that the regional power wanted to build its own missile defense systems.
"For Turkey, the key aspect of any deal is transfer of technology or know how. The Russian agreement to allow two of the S-400 batteries to be produced in Turkey will serve that aim," the official added.
Turkey's purchase of the Russian missile system is a clear sign of the country's disappointment with the West, mainly due to the EU's attitude towards Turkish officials and the fact that the leader of Gülenist terror group (FETÖ), Fetullah Gülen is living in the U.S. and American officials have yet to take any steps to extradite him despite the "85 boxes of concrete evidence" proving that he was behind the July 15 coup attempt, which left 249 dead and over 2100 injured.
The U.S.' support to the YPG terrorist group, the Syrian affiliate of the PKK is also one of the biggest reasons Turkish-American diplomatic relations have soured.
Turkey and Russia have engaged in talks regarding Turkey's cooperation with Russia in the defense sector since the Russian-Turkish rapprochement in August 2016.
The S-400 is a new generation of Russian missile system, which has so far been sold to China and India only.
Last year, both China and India signed an intergovernmental agreement for the procurement of four regiments of Russian-made S-400s. Turkey will become the first NATO-member country to purchase the system.

1. Forcing Russian vehicle off Syrian road, US military sends a strong message

In turn, this show of resolve also deters Russia from escalation. This is important in the context of longstanding Russian threats against U.S. personnel in Syria. The most serious example here came with the Russian GRU/GU intelligence service's use of mercenaries to launch a 2018 attack on U.S. forces.
This didn't end well for the Russians when then-Defense Secretary Jim Mattis ordered air strikes to "annihilate" their force. But Vladimir Putin will escalate against America if he senses weakness. By driving his guys off the road, the U.S. is showing the opposite of weakness.
Yet this video will also do something else: spark well-timed smiles in Turkey.
This is valuable in that America's erstwhile NATO ally is presently furious over Russia, Iran, and Assad's ongoing offensive in Syria's western Idlib governate. That offensive, again, in breach of Russian ceasefire commitments to Turkey, has sparked a new humanitarian crisis.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan is threatening to launch a counteroffensive against Assad's forces. But by showing U.S. resolve in face of Russia, Turks in the government and public at large find a new reason to rejoin the U.S. alliance. The world's most powerful nation is showing Turkey that it has an ally-in-waiting with which to counter Russia's malfeasance in Syria.
2. Turkey edges towards direct conflict with Russian-backed Syria

Speaking to lawmakers from his ruling AK Party on Wednesday, Erdogan said Turkey was determined to make Idlib a secure zone even while talks with Moscow continued. Several rounds of diplomacy had failed to reach an agreement so far, he said.
"We are entering the last days for the regime to stop its hostility in Idlib. We are making our final warnings," said Erdogan, whose country has the second-largest army in NATO.
"Turkey has made every preparation to carry out its own operational plans. I say that we can come at any point. In other words, the Idlib offensive is only a matter of time."
Erdogan on Saturday appeared to move forward his earlier end-of-February deadline for a Syrian withdrawal from Idlib.
