Foreign Minister Mevlüt Çavu?o?lu has ruled out placing British ?police spotters? in Istanbul in order to stop foreigners from travelling across the Turkish border to join jihadi militant groups in Syria and Iraq.

Britain is seeking to better help Turkey prevent foreigners crossing into Syria to join jihadist groups, the chairman of the U.K.'s Home Affairs Select Committee stated on March 3.

"I do not think it is the job of the Turkish police and the Turkish authorities to chase our citizens. This all has to be done with cooperation," said Keith Vaz at the committee.
