The United States issued sanctions this week against the Turkish defense industry. They were imposed on Turkey pursuant to the Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA), for purchasing the S-400 surface-to-air missile system from Russia. Washington argues that the deployment undermines bilateral ties and NATO. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, naturally, condemned the sanctions.
