The 2020 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which will increase the US' defense spending by about $20 billion, or about 2.8 per cent, also includes controversial provisions calling for sanctions against Russia and Turkey.
The United States had removed Turkey from the F-35 program when Turkey accepted delivery for Russian-made S-400 air defense systems in July.
On the other hand, the Turkish Foreign Ministry in a statement on Tuesday condemned the bill, saying U.S. Members of Congress are damaging their own reputations and credibility by allowing themselves to be used by their anti-Turkish colleagues’ drive to hollow out the notion of 'Alliance'. (ILKHA)
