Turkey hit out at Belgium and the Netherlands over failures in security that preceded this week’s deadly Brussels attacks as two Belgian ministers offered to resign over the matter.
Koen Geens, justice minister, and Jan Jambon, interior minister, offered to step down from their posts amid recriminations over the country’s handling of the terrorist network that killed 31 people and wounded as many as 300 in Brussels this week.
But their requests were turned down by Charles Michel, prime minister, at a cabinet meeting that discussed revelations that Turkey warned both Belgium and the Netherlands last year about one of the suicide bombers.
