Turkey was given an ultimatum and "offered" to buy the S-400 together with the Su-57.

Washington announced that an ultimatum had been delivered to Turkey regarding the purchase of Russian S-400 Triumph systems. According to Democratic Senator Bob Menendez, American F-35 fighters will not be supplied to Turkey if it receives the S-400 complexes, regardless of whether Ankara will deploy these systems on its territory or on the territory of neighboring states. ...

“There will never be an F-35 next to the S-400, this will never happen. This is the position of both parties in Congress "- said Menendez.

In fact, as experts note, Washington itself is pushing Turkey to purchase not only S-400 systems, but also to purchase Russian Su-57 fighters, which was already actively discussed by the Turkish Ministry of Defense.

“Washington is giving Turkey a senseless ultimatum,“ offering ”to buy the S-400 together with the Su-57 fighters. An attempt to intimidate Erdogan will simply result in what the Turkish president promised, namely, in the purchase of Russian combat aircraft ", - the expert Avia.pro marks.

Earlier, Turkey announced that it was ready to deploy the S-400 systems on the territory of neighboring states, but, obviously, this did not suit the Pentagon.
