Turkey: US missile deal doesn't affect deal with Russia

Turkey’s purchase of US missiles worth $3.5 billion will not affect its deal to acquire rival S-400 missiles from Russia, the Turkish presidential spokesman said Monday, according to AFP.

"The US Patriot sale process does not affect the S-400 process. We don't see one as an alternative for the other," said Ibrahim Kalin, spokesman for President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
