Turkish PM retracts compensation offer for downed Russia jet: media

Turkish Prime Minister Binali Yildirim on Tuesday reversed an earlier offer of compensation to Russia for shooting down one of Moscow's military jets in November, media reported.

"Compensating Russia is not on the table, we have only expressed our regrets," CNN-Turk cited him as saying, hours after he said Ankara was ready to offer compensation for the incident that shattered ties between the two countries.
