Tukkey: NATO has no right to dictate Ankara its terms

NATO has no right to tell Ankara who it can build relations with and Turkey will develop its ties with Russia despite Western views, the Turkish Ambassador to Russia Umit Yardım said.

"In no way can NATO limit our contacts with other countries. It means NATO has no right to dictate its terms and tell us who we should or should not meet and communicate with," Reuters cited Yardım as saying.

He also noted that Vladimir Putin and Recep Tayyip Erdogan may hold talks in the framework of G20 in China.
