Turkey: U.S. Sanctions Under the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA)

Abstract

Turkey's July 2019 acquisition of an S-400 surface-to-air defense system from Russia sparked debate about possible U.S. sanctions against Turkey - a longtime NATO ally - under the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA, P.L. 115-44). CAATSA requires the President to impose sanctions on those persons he determines have knowingly engaged in a "significant transaction" with Russia's security sector.
