“According to inbound data, top Turkish leadership is involved in this criminal business, including president Erdogan and his family”. Russian Federation has imposed sanctions against Turkish products in retaliation for the downing. “Turkey hasn’t lost its moral principles as to purchase petroleum from a terror organization”, Erdogan said in Wednesday’s address at Qatar University, utilizing the Arabic acronym for the Islamic State group, soon following the Russian Defense Ministry made the claims.
