Another day, another angry rant by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan aimed at the US, who on Sunday vowed Ankara would abandon the dollar in transactions with Russia and other countries, accusing the US of behaving like “wild wolves.”<\/p>\n

“America behaves like wild wolves. Don’t believe them,” Erdogan told a business forum during the Turkey-Kyrgyzstan Business Forum in Kyrgyzstan, according to AFP.<\/p>\n

Erdogan also echoed the dedollarization call from Russia’s deputy foreign minister Serkey Ryabkov<\/a>, saying said that Turkey country was in negotiations with Russia over non-dollar trade.<\/p>\n

“Using the dollar only damages us. We will not give up. We will be victorious,” <\/strong>Erdogan told the meeting, attended by Kyrgyz and Turkish businessmen as well as government officials.<\/p>\n

On August 24, Moscow said it would respond <\/a>to Washington\u2019s latest sanctions by accelerating efforts to abandon the American currency in trade transactions: “The time has come when we need to go from words to actions, and get rid of the dollar as a means of mutual settlements, and look for other alternatives,” said Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Ryabkov.<\/p>\n

“Thank God, this is happening, and we will speed up this work,\u201d Ryabkov said, explaining the move would come in addition to other \u201cretaliatory measures\u201d as a response to a growing list of US sanctions.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Erdogan also said that Ankara doesn\u2019t need permission from anyone to purchase Russian S-400 missile systems, just days after the US once again\u00a0 warned the country against buying the hotly discussed air-defense system.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have made S-400 deal with Russia. Someone is offended by it. We don’t need permission from anybody,\u201d the Turkish leader said in Kyrgyzstan.<\/p>\n
