NATO's top commander questions Turkish missile deal with China

NATO's top military commander urged Turkey on Wednesday to buy a missile defense system that is compatible with other NATO systems
NATO member Turkey said in September it had chosen the FD-2000 missile defense system from China Precision Machinery Import and Export Corp, or CPMIEC, over systems from Russian, U.S. and European firms.
CPMIEC is under U.S. sanctions for violations of the Iran, North Korea and Syria Nonproliferation Act. Turkey later said its decision on the deal was not final.
Turkey has asked the United States to extend the pricing on Raytheon Co's Patriot missile defense system proposal, in a sign that Ankara is keeping its options open in case its talks with CPMIEC fall through.
