Dutch Patriots for Turkey |
|
Nato has approved the deployment of Patriot anti-missile batteries along Turkey's border with Syria. The long-expected move emerged from a meeting of Nato foreign ministers in Brussels, and amid growing fears that Syria could use chemical weapons. Nato's Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said "The patriot missiles have been deployed, making it necessary for any potential aggressor to think twice before attacking Turkey". The Patriot system would probably be supplied by the United States, the Netherlands or Germany and is designed mainly to bring down missiles. But Turkish papers say it won't be the US ones, but Dutch or Geman, or both. The NHK EU correspondent wants to show the preparations, transport and placement of the Dutch Patriots.
