Turkey may refuse to pay Russia for purchased S-400

Turkey may start blackmailing Russia with its own anti-aircraft missile systems.

After Turkey received from Russia the S-400 anti-aircraft missile systems, Ankara suddenly began to put a spoke in Russia's wheels. So, in addition to the attacks of Turkish jihadists on the Russian military in Syria, accusations of the unleashing of the conflict by the Russian side in Libya, and the beginning of the Karabakh conflict, Turkey unexpectedly announced its readiness to help Ukraine take Crimea away from Russia. The situation points to the fact that Ankara seeks to tie up some semblance of a conflict with Moscow, and thus refuse to pay for the purchase of S-400 complexes, remaining with these anti-aircraft missile systems and with money.

Experts draw attention to the fact that despite the tests of the Russian S-400, Ankara is actively postponing the adoption of these complexes for service - initially it was assumed that this would happen in March, however, until now the S-400 has not been adopted by the Turkish army - according to According to the Turkish media, additional checks of Russian complexes are required.

“Turkey is an absolutely unreliable ally. This has already been announced in the PRC, having also made a mistake in the supply of weapons to Ankara, and now, when Turkey has received the S-400 complexes, it does declare its readiness to block Russian ships from the Black Sea and return Crimea, considering the peninsula its historical part. This is nonsense! ", - said the analyst Avia.pro.

It's too early to judge how high the likelihood is that Turkey can take the Russian S-400 complexes "free of charge", however, over the past few months, Ankara has seriously undermined relations with Russia
