While Trump seemed to be supportive of Turkish arguments over the purchase of the Russian-made S400 missile defence system, lower ranked American officials have said if the delivery goes forward as planned, there will be sanctions. Journalist Yavuz Oğhan talks to SBS Turkish about the general debate in Turkey. Should we trust Trump or not. (AUDIO IN TURKISH)
