Turkey’s defense ministry, and 4 of their top officials, were sanctioned yesterday under Section 231 of CAATSA for their purchase of Russian S-400 missiles - that they contracted for in 2017, and received last year. What took so long?

Yum! Pass the gravy! (I know Thanksgiving was a few weeks ago, but roll with it, OK?).
