We do not speculate about possible future sanctions designations. It is for NATO Allies to make decisions on their own sanctions. Allies have committed to reducing dependencies on Russian-sourced equipment. We expect Allies to neither buy nor operate Russian military equipment and have regularly raised our concerns with Turkey that their procurement of Russian S400 systems is a threat to NATO interoperability and incompatible with Allied systems.
