Litovkin emphasized that the S-400 is the best air defense system in the world.
“She is the most efficient and modern. We know the incompetent operation of the Patriot system during the Persian Gulf war in 2003, we know about its failure in Saudi Arabia when Hussite drones attacked an oil refinery. Therefore, the Turks chose the weapon that they need and which will reliably protect their territories and objects, ”he said.
The expert also added that Turkey demonstrates to everyone its independence, sovereignty and ability to withstand any pressure.
Earlier, Cavusoglu during a press conference with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg named the reasons for the purchase of S-400 anti-aircraft missile systems.
In turn, Stoltenberg announced NATO’s dissatisfaction with Turkey’s purchase of the S-400.
