Aftermath of Russian war-plane downing: See what Russia did to 39 Turkish business men
Russian President Vladimir Putin and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan have reputations for talking aggressively and acting decisively.
Russia has reportedly deported 39 business men from Turkey saying the businessmen were on tourist visas instead of business visas. The businessmen say they didn’t know they had violated immigration laws but were arrested and deported by authorities. This comes after the downing of a Russian war-plane by Turkish military after the plane tried to cross Turkish borders and enter Turkish airspace.
Both pilots ejected from the plane and one, Captain Konstantin Murakhtin, was rescued by Russian special forces after he landed in the forest in rebel-held territory but the other, Lieutenant Colonel Oleg Peshkov was shot dead by rebels.
Turkey and NATO had repeatedly warned Russia its fighter jets were violating Turkish air space and the alliance’s southern flank, and if these incursions continued they would be shot down.
