Turkey criticizes Britain over missing schoolgirls
 

Turkey criticized Britain on Monday for taking too long to inform it about three London schoolgirls who traveled to Turkey last week possibly en route to join Islamist militants in Syria. Deputy Prime Minister Bulent Arinc said he hoped the girls would be found, but that it would be Britain, **t Turkey, to blame if they were **t. "It is an condemnable act for Britain to let three girls ... come to Istanbul and then let us k**w three days later ... They haven't taken the necessary measures," Arinc told reporters after a cabinet meeting. The three London schoolgirls arrived at Istanbul airport on Feb. 17 and British authorities, concerned that they were traveling to join Islamic State fighters, informed Ankara on Feb. 20, Arinc said.
