Russia may freeze investment projects with Turkey

Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev ordered the Russian government to draw up measures that would include freezing some joint investment projects with Turkey, in retaliation for the downing of a Russian warplane by Turkey, RIA Novosti news agency reported.

He also told a meeting of cabinet ministers on Nov. 26 that the measures would include restrictions on food imports from Turkey.

The Turkish Air Force shot down the Russian military plane SU-24 in its airspace Nov. 24.
Both pilots managed to eject and the plane crashed on the territory of Syria. Relations between Russia and Turkey have deteriorated after this incident.
