WASHINGTON – Former U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates urged the incoming Biden administration to take a tougher stance with Turkey, suggesting further punitive steps could be taken against its fellow NATO member following its purchase of Russia’s S-400 missile defense system.
Gates’ comments, published in a New York Times opinion piece on Friday, stated that the purchase, which came after repeated American warnings, “must have costs. (Recently imposed sanctions are a good start.)”
The United States has warned that the Russian defense systems pose a threat to F-35 fighter jets and NATO’s broader defense systems – a claim that Turkey denies.
