Erdogan’s comments came after repeated requests by Ankara for the extradition of Pennsylvania-based Fethullah Gulen, who is accused of orchestrating the failed coup on July 15. On Tuesday, it was reported that a former Turkish military officer, on a US-based assignment for NATO, was also seeking asylum in the country after being recalled by Ankara in the wake of last month’s attempted coup. While Erdogan made no specific mention of that report, the development had the potential to strain ties between Turkey and the US further. Speaking to tens of thousands gathered in front of Bestepe Presidential Complex, Erdogan said: "Sooner or later the US will have to make a choice. Either Turkey or FETO (Fetullah Terror Organization)." "Either coup-plotting terrorist FETO or democratic country Turkey.

The downing of the Russian jet in November, which Putin described as a "treacherous stab in the back," came amid boiling tensions over Syria, where Moscow and Ankara back opposing sides in the war.
