Turkey agreed to host American early warning radar stations
Turkey has dropped its opposition to Nato’s missile defence system aimed at countering ballistic missile threats from neighbouring Iran by agreeing to host American early warning radar stations.
The Turkish Foreign Ministry said on Friday that negotiations over the Alliance’s anti-missile shield had reached “their final stages.”
Nato’s “Strategic Concept” for the coming decade, approved at a summit in Lisbon, confirmed its core task of defending its territory and the commitment to collective defence of its 28 members.
