Nocturnal Twitterings V


Dominic Raab (foreign secretary)I’ve spoken to my Turkish counterpart Mevlut Cavusoglu to express the UK’s disappointment and concern about the military incursion into NE Syria, and call for restraint. The intervention risks greater humanitarian suffering and undermines the focus on countering Daesh. 
Emily Maitlis, BBC: There’s a lot of foreign office “disappointment” this week. Disappointment is when pret runs out of your fave lunchtime sarnie. Not when war is started.
