Rubio says attacks on Turkey ‘unacceptable’ after Iran missile launch

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio says that attacks on NATO ally Turkey’s sovereignty are “unacceptable,” after the alliance shot down an Iranian missile, which a Turkish official said had veered off course.

In a call with Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan, Rubio says that “attacks on Turkey’s sovereign territory were unacceptable and pledged full support from the United States,” State Department spokesman Tommy Pigott says.
