Sanctions imposed by US on our agency because under President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's leadership, we refuse to bow down to orders – Turkey's Defense Industries Chief Ismail Demir

US President Donald Trump greets Turkey's President Tayyip Erdogan during a joint news conference at the White House in Washington, US, November 13, 2019.

Speaking at Anadolu Agency's Editor's Desk on Thursday, head of Turkey's Defense Industries, Ismail Demir, said the sanctions only target his agency, but will not affect existing agreements that were already signed. Criticising the sanctions, he said they were imposed by the US because under President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's leadership, Turkey refused to bow down to orders. The US on Monday imposed sanctions on Turkey over its purchase of the Russian S-400 missile defence system.

In April 2017, when its protracted efforts to buy an air defence system from the US proved fruitless, Turkey signed a contract with Russia to acquire the S-400 shield.
