AMMAN • Jordan and Turkey warned yesterday against dividing neighbouring Iraq along sectarian lines, saying that would spark civil war in the already violence-wracked nation and endanger the whole region.

“A division of Iraq would mean a descent into the abyss and a civil war that ... would also have dangerous repercussions for all neighbouring countries,” Jordanian Priem Minister Maaruf Bakhit told a press conference with visiting Turkish counterpart, Recep Tayyip Erdogan."
