uin	HL14668
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 28/03/2019 answer text <p>We have repeatedly raised our concerns at Ministerial and official level about the proposed Turkish purchase of S-400 missiles. Turkey is a valued NATO ally, on the front line of some of the UK and the Alliance's most difficult security challenges. Defence equipment procurement decisions are for nations, but all NATO allies have committed to reducing their dependence on Russian-sourced legacy military equipment. The proposed purchase would pose real challenges for the interoperability of NATO systems.</p> answering member printed Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon question first answered 28/03/2019 15:31:35 answering member 4210 label Biography information for Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon
