Turkey not to give up S-400 air defense system

Our position is to restore peace between Ukraine and Russia

"Turkey will not give up the S-400 air defense system it bought from Russia," president of Turkey's Defence Industries Ismail Demir said in his interview with Russia's Izvestia newspaper,  Qazet.az said.

He noted that this issue was not a topic of discussion for the Turkish side:

"This issue has been discussed before, and now we continue cooperation with the Russian Federation. Turkey can determine its own policy and path. "

'Our position is to restore peace between Ukraine and Russia. We are doing everything to stop the bloodshed," he added.
