#1 ...And we're free not to sell you the damned F-35s. Works out nicely.

#3 Exactly Mike. They are free to buy the S-400 and we are free to not sell them the F-35s. In fact I don't think we should be selling them any military hardware at this point.

They are clearly not an ally and are acting more like a rival.

#4 Give them a refund on the money that they have already invested in the F-35, if any, and move on. We don't trust each other so just make that distrust official.
