Turkey says US distorted meeting, but Pompeo stands by it.

Turkey on Thursday accused the US State Department of making false claims about rows during a meeting between the top US and Turkish diplomats, but Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said he stood by the account.

The US State Department said Pompeo had warned Ankara of"potentially devastating consequences" if Turkey launches an offensive in Syria and urged the"swift resolution" of legal cases involving US citizens and US mission employees under investigation in Turkey. He backed up earlier comments by his foreign ministry spokesman Hami Aksoy said the US readout"not only fails to reflect the content of the meeting, but also contains matters that were not even raised during said meeting".
