Turkey ignores US warnings as it continues to take delivery of Russia's S-400

The western defence alliance NATO, which counts Turkey as one of its members, is also "concerned about the potential consequences" of the S-400 purchase, an official told.
Turkey ignored US warnings as it continued Saturday to take delivery of Russia's S-400 missile defence system near Ankara, news agency AFP reported quoting a defence minstry statement.
"Delivery of S-400 Long Range Air and Missile Defence Systems resumed today," the statement said.
"The fourth Russian plane carrying S-400 parts landed at Murted Airport outside Ankara," it added.
The US fears that if Ankara integrates the S-400 into its defences, data about the US-built F-35 fighter jet could leak back to the Russians, and Washington has threatened to deny Turkey access to the stealth aircraft, the report added.
The western defence alliance NATO said Friday it was "concerned" by Turkey's acquisition of Russia's S-400 missile defence system after Ankara took delivery of its first batch.
The alliance has repeatedly warned Turkey that the Russian system is incompatible with other NATO weapons systems, not least the F-35 fighter jet.
Members of the US Congress have repeatedly voiced opposition to the move and threatened sanctions.
"President Erdogan was given a very clear choice. Unfortunately, he has clearly made the wrong one," said Eliot Engel and Michael McFaul, the top Democrat and Republican respectively on the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
Ankara rejects the US warnings, and on Friday, Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu told reporters: "We say this each time. This is a done deal. The process continues."
